Hi, Time to start compiling new features and major bug fixes for inclusion in the F8 release notes. I''m noting... - the addition of x86_64 tickless by default. - the Build ID - Wakeups - Laptop improvements - The changes to the spec file (new macros, changing name to kernel.spec) - Based on 2.6.22? Other items? I will be going through this list, BZ, the kernel changelog, etc - but any replies to this email are appreciated. Thanks, Sam
