Longterm kernel proposal signals ongoing Linux growth
,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux kernel development process may be getting a little tweaking if a
| proposal by -stable kernel maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman is accepted; tweaking
| needed to meet growing commercial interest in Linux.
|
| The proposal is simple, on the surface and all the way down: Currently, the
| 2.6.32 kernel is maintained as a -longterm kernel, a kernel release that is
| maintained as a stable release with bug fixes and patches for a relatively
| lengthy period of time. This is opposed to the official -stable release of the
| Linux kernel, which is the kernel release most suitable for general use, and
| is dropped when the next release is moved into the -stable category. (The
| current -stable release, for example, is the 3.0.1 kernel.)
