    I'm expecting to see the development kernel numbers climb pretty rapidly.. Probably a new one every day, with the occasional twice-a-day ones and the occasional skipped day.

    Perhaps Rob/Hemos/someone can make a special 'Kernel' or 'Kernel-Development' news type that people can filter out. I'd actually recommend both types. That way, normal people can hear about the fixes to the stable end of things, and the people that love the bleeding edge can go out and grab the devel kernel..

    Of course, I'm sure someone could just write a nifty script that fingers linux.kernel.org to update that stuff automatically (or maybe a slashbox.. hmm..)

  2. Get over it! by Enthrad · · Score: 4

    Slashdot has always announced the devel kernel releases. Please search Slashdot for "kernel 2.1 released", if you doubt this. Go on. There is a reason for the little "search" thing down there at the bottom of this page.

    If you don't like an article, don't click "Read More". I really cannot see how this is difficult to comprehend.

    Please stop whinging about a free service and let Rob and friends run their site as they please. Slashdot might not be the quickest place to report the releases, but it does give a good place to see discussion about problems others have had with the release. But obviously not this article, today.

  3. POLL IDEA: devkernel announces? by nowonder · · Score: 4

    as written wrt 2.3.1 i think only announcements
    should be made that feature a real news
    element. but thats only my opinion, so why not
    make a poll:

    how would you like your kernels?
    * i want it all
    * no development kernels, please
    * kernels -> slashbox
    * let me filter them/new category
    * only important ones
    * medium with chili and sauce hollondaise

  4. There IS a kernel version SlashBox... by Chris+Pimlott · · Score: 4

    It's called "LinuxHQ Kernel Versions." Gives the current new and old versions of stable and development kernels, with links to the files and the patch browser.

    Happy?
