The average user and lkml reader, perhaps. But I don't understand why Linus refuses to use proper -preX/-rcX naming, it would clear up a lot of confusion imho. It's just the logical thing to do, Marcelo gets it completely right. That -rcX and -rcX+1 differ in what they mean is really confusing and opposite of basically anything else out there. With the 2.6.x-release tree and proper -pre/-rc naming, I would be perfectly happy :-) -- Jens Axboe - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
