From: Greg KH
Date: Sat Jan 24 2009 - 19:52:39 EST


We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.28.2
kernel.

It contains a wide range of bugfixes, and all users of the 2.6.28 kernel
series are strongly encouraged to upgrade.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.28.1 and 2.6.28.2

The updated 2.6.28.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.28.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:

thanks,

greg k-h
