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. There is not a release candidate for linux-2.6.29 so far. Now the merge window is open and all the changes for 2.6.29 are merged. After the merge window is closed, there will be a 2.6.29-rc1. 2.6.28-rc9 was the last release candidate before 2.6.28. > > > > > > This explains the developement model. > > > > > > Andre > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
