. Con's CPU scheduler rework has been dropped out and Ingo's changes have
  been added.

  Con's changes demonstrated that additional infrastructure is needed to
  solve these problems correctly.  Ingo's patch adds those.  Con is
  continuing to rebase his work on these changes.

. Added Ingo's 4G/4G memory split patch.  It takes my kernel build from
  1:51 to 1:53 so gee.

  Big fat warning: whenever you change the value of CONFIG_X86_4G you will
  need to run a `make clean'.  Or just remove arch/i386/boot/setup.o.

  The build system seems to not notice that setup.S depends on
  CONFIG_X86_4G and the resulting kernel immediately triplefaults.

. A device mapper update.

. Several reiserfs bugfixes

. I don't think anyone has reported on whether 2.6.0-test2-mm2 fixed any
  PS/2 or synaptics problems.  You are all very bad.
