Hmm. Fairly calm week, and rc3 is almost exactly the same size as rc2was.  Which is a bit unusual - usually rc2 is calm, and then rc3 iswhen people have started finding problems and we get a more activeweek.But far be it for me to complain about a calm rc week, so I won't.Nothing particularly stands out. Yes, the continued SPDX work doeskind of result in a constant background hum of license commentcleanups if you look at the patch itself, but it obviously has no codeimpact (outside of one buggy conversion that was fixed, but caused abuild failure before that 😉Anyway, even ignoring the SPDX changes, there's just a lot of smallfixes spread all over, not anything that looks particularly scary orworrisome. Maybe next week is when the other shoe drops, but maybethis will just be a nice calm release. That would be lovely.                  Linus
