Kernel prepatch 3.8-rc1 Linus has released 3.8-rc1 and closed the merge window for this development cycle. " The longest night of the
year is upon us, and what better thing to do than get yourself some
nice mulled wine, sit back, relax, and play with the most recent rc
kernel?" Most of the significant changes in 3.8 were discussed in this merge window summary; the biggest feature merged since then is the f2fs
filesystem. | | 10:06p |
GNU sed 4.2.2 released; maintainer resigns
Version 4.2.2 of the GNU stream editor "sed" is out. There's a number of
new features, but the announcement also includes the resignation of the sed
maintainer. "Barring any large change in policy and momentum from
GNU, these three reasons are bound to be the first step towards the
irrelevance of GNU. And barring any such policy change, I have no reason
to be part of GNU anymore." |
