Op de Linux Kernel Mailing List is een nieuwe Linux 2.6-kernel aangekondigd. De kernel is ditmaal aangekomen bij versienummer 2.6.32.8. De veranderingen zijn uitvoerig toegelicht in het changelog. Greg Kroah-Hartman heeft de volgende beknopte aankondiging meegegeven:
Linux 2.6.32.8
I'm announcing the release of the 2.6.32.8 kernel.
Sorry for the delay in releasing it, but there were a few crashes that people had reported, combined with verifying that a security problem really was fixed and backported properly, along with travel to and from FOSDEM, all which caused delays. Look, a release at 5am, jet lag sucks at times...
And of course all users of the 2.6.32 kernel series are very strongly encouraged to upgrade.
The updated 2.6.32.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.32.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:

thanks,
greg k-h
