Subject: 2.6.26.8-rt15

We are pleased to announce the 2.6.26.8-rt15 tree which can be
downloaded from the following location:

  http://rt.et.redhat.com/download/

Information on the RT patch can be found at:

to build the 2.6.26.8-rt15 tree, the following patches should be applied:

  http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.26.tar.bz2
  http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/patch-2.6.26.8.bz2

The RT git tree is almost ready!  It is currently based off of 2.6.28,
until it becomes a little more stable. You can down load it now from the
git repo:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-rt.git

It boots on x86_64. A few more patches still need to be applied, but the
majority of them have been incorporated. Work on the non x86 archs also
needs to be done.

Once the git tree is pretty stable I will release a 2.6.28-rt1 patch,
make a v2.6.28-rt branch and then go right in sync with the mainline
tree.

Feel free to download it now and give it a try. And you can send me any
crashes that you see.
