Subject: Linux 2.6.28-rc9


There really is _nothing_ interesting here. There's just small changes 
mostly to random drivers, with some networking updates. Oh, and some MIPS 
defconfig updates.

The shortlog really tells the whole boring story - if you can get even 
half-way through without falling asleep, you've just proven yourself to be 
sufficiently caffeinated.

In fact, that may be the most exciting part of -rc9: the medical 
revolution it harbors as a caffeine deficiency test.

But please do test it.

And btw, I do think that I'll make 2.6.28 be a Christmas release (or 
Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Solstice, Insert-Favorite-Holiday, whatever). Because 
quite frankly, this kind of boredom won't help anything and I'll go stir 
crazy if I have to do this for another two weeks.

And I'll make the merge window longer for people who prefer getting drunk 
on glögg to being a useful kernel developer. Although you could do both: 
just prepare your tree to be pulled before christmas, and then you can be 
in a mulled-wine-induced stupor while _also_ feeling like a productive 
member of society during the holidays.
