Linus, is there a preferred name to refer to the kernel version in your tree after 2.6.23 is out (and the official 2.6.23.y git was created) but before you release 2.6.24-rc1? I've seen online references to it as "2.6.24", "2.6.24++", "2.6.24-rc0", etc. Since your top-level Makefile still says "2.6.23", it is sometimes a bit confusing when one is testing code against your tree as well as the previously released stable kernel. I usually will stick a localversion file in my cloned copy of your tree, saying "2.6.24-pre-rc" or so. Perhaps you can come up with a definitive name for this "limbo" state and put it in your Makefile?
Anyway, 'tis just a minor quibble (which I hope won't start yet another major "naming" flame war :-0 Thanks, Erez. - 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/
