Linux 2.6.2 aka "Feisty Dunnart"

From: Linus Torvalds
Date: Tue Feb 03 2004 - 23:06:40 EST



I just pushed out the BK trees, and the tar-ball/patches are going out as
I write this, for Linux 2.6.2. The honor of naming it goes to Gernot
Heiser, for reasons that are largely alcoholic, I suspect. Good job!

The changelog from -rc3 mainly contains some ppc64 updates, see the
summary for more details on some of the other changes.
