Whoops. A nasty bug affecting symlinks made it into 2.4.11, and Linus has ditched that "sorry excuse for a kernel" in favor of the new and improved 2.4.12. :) See the (short) changelog or list of mirrors, as usual.

  Hello moderators.
  
  1. Offtopic? No, because I wanted an explanation of the previous post.
  
  2. Overrated? No, because I had not been rated. The post was at 2, because I post at 2 thanks to a reasonably high karma.

  Why don't moderators read the guidelines? You're not meant to moderate randomly like this. I don't moderate randomly like this, though sometimes I find moderation a chore. If you don't want to moderate properly, just untick the "willing to moderate" box in your user preferences.

Whoever mod this as flamebait is a thundering idiot.

Shouldn't let grader mod, in retrospective.

I'm sure you'd do a much better job of maintaining and managing 30Mb of sourcecode (gzipped) that targets a multitude of diverse architectures.

These jokes are getting old,they are recurrent and happen at every kernel release. Everyone got the point something like 10 kernels ago.
