    Make no mistake, I do not intend to see preempt-kernel in 2.4. I will,
    however, continue to maintain the patch for endusers and such that use
    it. A proper in-kernel solution for 2.4 in my opinion in mini-ll,
    perhaps extend with any other obviously-completely-utterly sane bits
    from full-ll.

    For 2.5, however, I tout preempt as the answer. This does not mean just
    preempt. It means a preemptible kernel as a basis for beginning
    low-latency works in manners other than explicit scheduling statements.
