Linux 2.2.3ac1 contains

o       ARM updates - working to merge ARM with my tree then eventually I
        hope with Linus - tho that may be a 2.3 job

o       V7 file system tweaks to sys5 1K

o       Improved SCSI generic (still the mark 1 edition) - Douglas
        has some improvements in the pipeline before it goes to Linus

o       The Large file array patch. I still hope to feed this to Linus at
        some point

o       i386 security hole fix for ptrace. Its in the other architectures
        too. It only bites if you use capabilities. The bigger hole in
        /proc is fixed in 2.2.3

o       AMD K6 MSR/MTRR setup. The MSR is ready to go to Linus now, and
        will do so, the MTRR stuff I hope will get merged with Richard
        Gooch stuff once its untangled from devfs

o       ADFS update. Strictly for Acorn fans

o       CDROM updates. Heading Linuswards soon

o       Better bw-qcam driver.

o       Printing fixes. I assume Tim will send these to Linus himself when
        he's finally happy

o       3c509 update - for EISA etc - queued for Linus

o       Wavelan update - queued for Linus

o       cs89x0 module parameters - queued for Linus

o       Sealevel sync driver. Awaiting confirmation it works on the real
        board as well as my test rig

o       SCSI blacklist and AIC7xxx updates

o       Prototype ESS PCI and Yamaha PCI legacy mode drivers. Gus SMP fix

o       NTFS doesnt crash when you run out of memory

o       /proc/mem crash fixes for threaded abuse programs

o       NFS: Im still merging together Linus & Trond's code. Once Trond
        has all the nice stuff finally tuned up with Linus this will all
        become main tree stuff. Im just making sure it gets tested 8)

o       NFSroot argument bug

o       Misc include/time wrap bug fixes
