    SubjectFrom 2.4 to 2.6 to 2.7?
    First things first, I would like to know what prompted the change from
    2.4 to 2.6 kernels. I know that the change had to do with the
    development version, the 2.5 tree and the massive amounts of patches
    distros had to carry. Aside from this i think it was also the
    scheduler changes that prompted the 2.6 version, but I don't know all
    that much about it and any other comments about the change would be
    great.

    Second I wanted to talk about the linux 2.7.x kernel, whats in the
    making or maybe even not started, that could prompt a change to a 2.7
    version kernel, i know that a lot of good changes are going into the
    kernel as part of the rcX kernels in the 2.6 version. Would we
    continue to see 2.6 kernels until some big problem shows its head and
    we all go "oh sh**" and then change something so massive that it
    prompts the change or are we going to continue with the 2.6 tree. I
    just want to get some information and peoples opinions on this, just
    to see where things are headed.
