We shipped 2.5 as an option for a while... I suspect we'll have 2.7 in
the tree if it's at all usable.
Thats true, but it was never the default (or I've missed something)
Like I said, the linux kernel ships with even numbers, I mean the
stable versions, I didn't say that gentoo wouldn't ;)
Andrew Morton think that mid-2005 is a good time for removal [1]. Here
are discussed also *Very* important changes in the way 2.6 is
developed [2].
devfs can disappear from 2.6 tree not waiting for 2.7 or 2.8.
Another important thing that came out is:
//Final stabilization is to be done by distributors (as happens now,
really), but the distributors are expected to merge their patches
quickly.//
