| Lots of random small changes. And one big revert - say "Goodbye" to Tuz,
| and "Hello again" to Tux.
|
| For people who prefer the tazmanian devil, you can revert the revert
| with "git revert 3d4f16348b77efbf81b7fa186a18a0eb815b6b84" and you'll get
| your Tuz back.
|
| Other than that? Pretty random. ARM, m68k, Microblaze, Powerpc updates. ACPi
| and i915. DVB and network drivers. PCI and USB. btrfs and ecryptfs.
| Networking and sound. All over the map, in other words.

Btrfs Benchmarks: Btrfs Is Not Yet The Performance King
,----[ Quote ]
| With the release this week of Fedora 11 Preview, which incorporates
| install-time support for the Btrfs file-system into Red Hat's Anaconda
| installer, we have now delivered our first set of benchmark results for this
| next-generation Linux file-system. Through a horde of disk tests we have
| looked at the Btrfs file-system performance and compared it to that of EXT3,
| EXT4, and XFS. While Btrfs does perform well in some areas, it is not yet the
| performance king for Linux file-systems. As our results show, in some tests
| it even has a hard time competing with the incremental EXT4 file-system.

The Evolution Of An GNU Project
,----[ Quote ]
| First lets be honest GnoMenu is a fork of another project the "Gnome Vista
| Start Menu" by Chris Hughes. Most hard core Linux users looked at the menu
| Chris did as a cheap Vista look alike. In some ways it was but Chris also
| stated that other menu designs were possible yet no one really bothered to
| pay attention. Well almost nobody. Enter Helder Fraga who took Chris' work
| and forked it into GnoMenu.
