Linus Torvalds Considering End To Linux 2.6 Series

Posted by Unknown on Monday May 23, 2011 @10:00AM from the linux-millenium-edition dept.

An anonymous reader writes "With the Linux 2.6 kernel set to begin its 40th development cycle and the Linux kernel nearing its 20th anniversary, Linus Torvalds has expressed interest today in moving away from the Linux 2.6.x kernel version. Instead he's looking to change things up by releasing the next kernel as Linux version 2.8 or 3.0."
