Hi all,
Andrew mentioned this and I just thought I would reinforce the message:
Please do not put 2.6.28 code into linux-next until at least after -rc1.
This will help Andrew's sanity :-)
So the day that -RC1 is released, I would like for linux-next to be
just about empty wrt Linus' tree. (Apart from bug fixes and late merges,
of course).

I would say let -rc2 be the flag for putting things for the next (2.6.28) release
into -next. That would give akpm time to get his load in as well.
Between -rc1 and -rc2, he could look at -next to see what patches were
picked up by maintainers and what he'll still have to send in himself.
But it's not me doing the work :-)
Keep up the good work Stephen/AKPM.

Fine by me - I get another week off :-)

We can't have that.

-rc1 is a suitable time, thanks.
