Kernel Log: What's new in 2.6.29 - Part 1: Dodgy Wifi drivers and AP support
,----[ Quote ]
| Scarcely two weeks after the release of Linux 2.6.28, Linus Torvalds has
| integrated comprehensive changes for kernel version 2.6.29 into the main
| development branch. As of Friday morning, he had added a whopping 7550
| patches that changed 8388 files and included more than 1,061,513 new,
| changed, or moved, lines of code. Over the weekend, the merge window closed
| and the second phase of the development cycle, which usually lasts some eight
| to ten weeks, has started with the release of 2.6.29-RC1. In the second phase
| only corrections, or small changes that do not threaten the code, will find
| their way into the main development branch.

,----[ Quote ]
| In Part 2 of the Kernel Log's coverage of the major changes happening in the
| main development branch for the Linux kernel 2.6.29 release, we look at a
| major new addition to Linux's networking capability, WiMAX support.

| USB sub-system maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman has brought the WiMAX stack,
| developed primarily by Intel developers in the framework of the Linux WiMAX
| project, into the Linux main development branch.

| The merge window is over, and while it is quite possible that I missed a
| few merge requests in the crazy week that is behind us, apart from those
| we should now have most of the bulk of 2.6.29 merged up. And now it's just
| a small matter of making sure it's all stable and ready to go.

The innovations of Linux 2.6.28
,----[ Quote ]
| The Ext4 file system leaves its main development phase and will soon be ripe
| for productive use. Major renovation work on the code for memory and disk
| management promises GPU speed increases and better scalability. Hundreds of
| new and revised drivers improve hardware compatibility significantly.
