Linux 2.5
Hello all! I just would like to know what's missing to the start of the development of the kernel 2.5, and the mantaince of the 2.4 to go to Alan Cox ? I'm asking this because I see a very good stability of the 2.4 tree, and the need of the start of the development of 2.5. Currently, 2.4 is just getting small fixes, that could be easily managed by Alan. Does Linus have any schedule to pass the control of 2.4 management to someone else, and start developing the great 2.5 kernel?

IMHO, the 2.4.6-pre has important improvements, and it would be difficult to merge to it later. Just a stupid opinion. No offenses.

But will this happen forever? You (Alan) is currently the maintaner of the 2.2 tree. Won't you be going to assume the 2.4 tree, while the 2.5 series development starts? BTW, Thanks for your answer.

Well it started by accident but it turns out good to have a tree that changes are merged into, tested by those who need the fixes and reviewed by third parties before they go to Linus.

The difference between Linus's kernel and Alan Cox's kernel
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi. Maybe lots of you already know the answer, maybe it's a really stupid question. If it is, please tell me. I'll not be offended. Why there are two different kernel trees? There is always the official release, provided by Torvalds, and then Alan provides a patch merging Linus's stuff, and adding (?) tons of bug fixes. Why aren't the -ac patches completely merged to the official tree, and you centralize the work on single kernel patches ?? Won't it be easier to administrate? I'm so sorry if it's a really stupid question. It's because I never know what pre-patch to apply, the -ac* or the -pre*. In doubt, I apply Alan's, because it appears to be always Linus stuff, and more bug fixes, recently, the Linus's -pre* appears to have merges from the -ac on each release. I just don't understand why it can all be merged.
