Status of Linux 2.6.31

2009-10-18 Thread Ben Hutchings
Linux 2.6.31 seems to be in fairly good shape now. I have updated linux-kbuild-2.6 to 2.6.31.2 and refreshed firmware-linux-nonfree from the linux-firmware repository. I'll be requesting removal of linux-modules-extra-2.6 rather than updating it. Also, the stable series 2.6.30.y has now ended.
