There're not "release notes" for small bugfixes like the ones involving 2.6.5. There're release notes for "2.6 kernel", as there're "release notes" for gnome 2.6, but there're not a "release note" for gnome 2.6.1 saying "this fix a bug in abiword where...". As much, you'll get a "abiword has been improved" or, most likely, "lots of improvements have been done in 2.6". For the kernel, you have the LWN summary. "USB updates".
So, do it yourself. You can't expect that the kernel developers are going to hide the guts of the development to other developers. As said do it yourself, or read www.lwn.net:
The 2.6.5 kernel is out [Kernel] Posted Apr 4, 2004 15:01 UTC (Sun) by corbet
Linus has announced the release of the 2.6.5 kernel. Changes since -rc3 include another ALSA update, some architecture updates, and various fixes. Big changes since 2.6.4 include the netpoll interface, a change to the DMA API (covered a few weeks ago), some SELinux improvements, the hotplug CPU patch set, and more; see the long-format changelog for the details.
Well, most of linux developers use the same adress than in linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org. It's a 3000+ subscribers list, so spammers know about it. Just try creating a new account and post to the list, spammers will catch you. The fact that it shows in the changelog is really minor. I guess that most of linux developers are just tired of spam and they already configured their spam filters. Same goes for any OSS proyect. I can't see how you won't contribute because of something that can happen anyway regardless of what you do.
No, gentoo only has sources, only has sources only has sources!!!
(/me puts his hands in the ears)

You can get 64 GB with a modern 32 bit processor with PAE (physical address extension; which extends some register up to 36 bits - but not the whole processor)
Wow, you put a lof of effort there in your "personal" project. The problem is, IMHO, there's no such "centralized" site where to look if a given program has been audited or not. That site could be very well the sardonix site - no need to "point" you if you don't want, I guess. At least, I guess Crispin could add a link to your site;)
(Yes, I just linked the left menu in wwww.sardonix.org . Isn't that what marketing is all about after all?)
Guys, this is important. This needs to be promoved everywhere. I'm thinking of translating their website - some spanish people can help?
It's NOT that bored. It CAN'T be that bored. Hell, there're dozens of guys discussing where in the window you should put a fucking button in the gnome/kde lists as we speak. This looks much more fun/useful to me.
Oh well. I just "apt-get install xmms". "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" updates my system. And I don't have to deal with compilations while I've speak loads;)
See the http://www.osdl.org/projects/26lnxstblztn/results/
It's full of such benchmarks. In the "2.5 stability effort", they have a 2.5.66 box with 231 days of uptime (another two with 168 and 102 uptime). There're also links to database benchmarks.
Everybody complains about windows.....nobody remembers that linux vm was rewritten during a stable release.
It sucked until some recent versions. People had to continue using 2.2; or developing their own trees...

Simple enought?

Wow, impressive. And that without benchmarking with the DOS Server version you probably have.
There's a secure apt in development. Check apt 0.6.18 in experimental.

Marketing! The magic word:
Sardonix web site (Why isn't this on the front page?)
List of vulnerabilities
Subscribe to the Mailing list
Become an auditor
Audited programas
Unaudited programs

It was.
BTW; The guy who did them has updated them. According with the new results, Netbsd *beats* freebsd 5.x: http://bulk.fefe.de/scalability/
IIRC, Freebsd 5.x is preemptible. Not sure, but I'd bet I heard that from some FBSD folk.
Oh well. I just "apt-get install xmms". "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" updates my system. And I don't have to deal with compilations while I've speak loads ;)
150 W? What does that Tejas thing have, a Electric Chair Inside ?
Someone (a ide tape maintainer) is looking at that.

Thre're a lot of splyware plugins that people is installing. That is a great feature.
there will be live translations, or that's what it says.
woot, there're very well know people there (ie: Rick van Riel, William Irwin, both linux kernel hackers) /me joins.
Debian sarge, wich was supposed to be released this month...
Everybody complains about windows.....nobody remembers that linux vm was rewritten during a stable release. It sucked until some recent versions. People had to continue using 2.2; or developing their own trees...
and ext3 supports them :)
Given that kerneltrap has "Too many connections", i don't know if they have this link: http://www.cs.rice.edu/~ssiyer/r/antsched
where it explains what anticipatory scheduling does.
(btw, it seems that freebsd had it for ages)
