Last 2.5.x Linux Kernel Released

Kourino writes "Today on LKML, Linus released 2.5.75, which he said will be "the last 2.5.x kernel from me", and that he and Andrew Morton are going to start a 2.6-pre series soon. While this certainly does mean things could get interesting soon, don't hold your breath about seeing the actual 2.6 for a while; there are still many areas that need work. This essentially means that the development branch is going into maintenance mode, and new features probably won't get in after this point. Changes of note in 2.5.75 include a merge of the anticipatory scheduler from Andrew Morton's -mm tree and updates from several architectures."

    You need to read GoingWare's Policy on Recruiters. Simply put, I refuse to deal with them.

    Yes, it is still possible to get work without recruiters. And it has the same fresh clean taste as air does when you quit smoking.

    When you're done reading that, read Fighting Age Discrimination and Buzzword Bingo in the Software Industry.

    Thank you for your attention.
