2.7 Linux Kernel Branch?
p2pnet.net News:- An anonymous reader here tells /.
"At the fourth annual Linux Kernel Developers Summit, it was decided that there won’t be a 2.7 Linux kernel development branch any time soon.
"Instead, Linux creator Linus Torvalds and the official 2.6 maintainer Andrew Morton have decided to continue working as a team, further enhancing the 2.6 kernel. Up to this point, kernels ending in an odd number (2.1, 2.3, 2.5, etc) were considered development kernels, and kernels ending in an even number (2.2, 2.4, 2.6, etc) were considered stable kernels.
"However, according to this KernelTrap article, active development will now continue in the mainline 2.6 tree, and the final stabilization will be left up to the companies that provide Linux distributions."
