This message contains a list of some regressions from 2.6.23 which have been reported since 2.6.24-rc1 was released and for which there are no fixes in the mainline that I know of. If any of them have been fixed already, please let me know. If you know of any other unresolved regressions from 2.6.23, please let me know either and I'll add them to the list.
