 LWN - summary:
 ==============
 
+29.04.2011:
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+2.6.39-rc4, released on April 18
+
+more commits in -rc4 than in -rc3
+
+problem:
+
+The plugging code still seems to trigger some issue with what looks
+like an infinite stream of disk-change notifications on CD-ROMs - but
+Jens is hopefully going to squish that problem soon. In the meantime,
+you can avoid the problem by either running SMP or having preemption
+enabled.
+
+
+
+
+2.6.39-rc5, released on April 26
+
+Another week, another keyboard destroyed by spilling coffee on it..
+C'est la vie.
+
+I've been alternately kicking myself for merging it, and just being so
+pleased with the rcu pathname walk now extending outside of the
+no-security confines ... I dunno. The patches are all pretty simple
+(there's also a few dentry cleanup patches that were the result of me
+looking at profiles and generated code), and it really is a rather
+important performance thing, but at the same time I would shout at
+others for trying to merge it to me this late. So I'll consider myself
+properly chastised.
+
+Other than that?
+
+We should have all the fallout from the block layer
+plugging changes fixed now, and Tejun fixed the infinite CD-ROM
+disk-change notification thing. So that's hopefully all good and done.
+
+The diffstat actually looks pretty good, most of it is
+just one-liners and stuff like a few new device ID's etc.
+
+
+Quote of the week
+
+There really are only two acceptable models of development: "think and analyze"
+or "years and years of testing on thousands of machines". Those two really do
+work.
