You all know the drill by now - another week, another rc. I'd say that things look fairly normal at this point: it's not a big rc2, but that's been true lately (rc3 tends to be a bit bigger - probably just because it takes time for people to start noticing issues). The patch statistics look fairly normal too: about half is drivers, almost a quarter is architecture fixups, and the rest is mostly networking and some documentation updates, but there's some core kernel/mm/fs fixes in there too. The shortlog is appended and gives a good flavor of the kinds of changes we have. Go out and test, nothing looks all that scary there. Linus
