I'm back on my usual Sunday schedule, and rc5 is back to its usualsize after a small bump in rc4.Things continue to look pretty normal. We've got about two thirdsdriver updates (gpu, infiniband, sound, networking, scsi, thermal),and almost half of the remainder is networking updates. The rest ismostly arch updates and some filesystem fixes. But all of it is prettysmall.So we're on schedule for a normal 4.1 release, if it wasn't for thefact that the timing looks like the next merge window would hit ouryearly family vacation. So we'll see how that turns out, I might endup delaying the release just to avoid that (or just delay opening themerge window). I haven't decided yet.But please keep testing,                       Linus
