We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.14.6
kernel. This flushes the outstanding 2.6.14-stable queue.

The diffstat and short summary of the fixes are below.

I’ll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch
between 2.6.14.5 and 2.6.14.6, as it is small enough to do so.

The updated 2.6.14.y git tree can be found at:
      
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chrisw/linux-2.6.14.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
       www.kernel.org/git/

thanks,
-chris
