 LWN - summary:
 ==============
 
+09.06.2011:
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The current development kernel is 3.0-rc1, released on May 29. Linus said:
+
+So what are the big changes? NOTHING. Absolutely nothing. Sure, we have the
+usual two thirds driver changes, and a lot of random fixes, but the point is
+that 3.0 is *just* about renumbering, we are very much *not* doing a KDE-4 or a
+Gnome-3 here. No breakage, no special scary new features, nothing at all like
+that. We've been doing time-based releases for many years now, this is in no way
+about features. If you want an excuse for the renumbering, you really should
+look at the time-based one ('20 years') instead.
+

+
+With the -rc1 release, Linus tagged the kernel "3.0.0" (with a new name of
+"Sneaky Weasel"). His stated intent is to drop the last digit during the
+stabilization period so that the final kernel would be just "3.0", but that
+depends on getting various user-space scripts fixed. Either way, the stable
+updates that most people will actually run will start with 3.0.1.
+
+--
+
+The current development kernel is 3.0-rc2, released on June 6. "It's been
+reasonably quiet, although the btrfs update is bigger than I was hoping for.
+Other than that, it's mostly driver fixes, some ubifs updates too, and a few
+reverts for the early regressions." The short changelog is in the announcement,
+or see the full changelog for the details.
