Hi,

look at the following document

http://www.linuxfoundation.org/publications/linuxkerneldevelopment.php.

This is my doubt! Now the latest stable version is 2.26.28 but the latest rc version is 2.6. 28-rc9. It should be 2.26.29-rcx according to the document.


This explains the developement model.
