Linux 2.6.0 Expected In Mid-December

Ridgelift writes "CRN is reporting the release of Linux 2.6.0 in mid-December. 'Torvalds, Linux's lead developer and now an OSDL Fellow, and Linux kernel maintainer Andrew Morton this week released the test10 version of Linux 2.6 after a three-year development effort. A final test11 version is expected before they sign off on the production version next month.' Get ready for 'major scalability improvements, faster performance, enhanced support for embedded systems and, to a lesser extent,' a kernel that 'supplies desktop systems with better USB and FireWire support.'"

    for each of the creators' innocents harmed, there is a badtoll that must/will be repaid by you/us, as the aforementioned perpetraitors of the life0cide against the planet/population will not be available to make reparations, as the big flash is already underway.

    You're not allowed to post anything which hints that SCO might have even a slight legal leg to stand on. It's right there in the unwritten slashdot faq between supporting copyright and praising microsoft.

    One can't help but wonder how long the /. dopes will find the endless stream of SCO jokes funny.
