Linus Torvalds announced the release of 2.6.11-rc3 summarizing, "this has a number of architecture updates (mips, arm, ppc, x86-64, ia64), and updates ACPI, DRI, ALSA, SCSI, XFS and InfiniNand.. And a lot of small one-liners all over." He went on to add, "I'd _really_ like to calm down for a final 2.6.11 now, so please note anything really important I missed, but keep the rest pending. And give this a good testing."

This has a number of architecture updates (mips, arm, ppc, x86-64, ia64), 
and updates ACPI, DRI, ALSA, SCSI, XFS and InfiniNand.. And a lot of small 
one-liners all over.

I'd _really_ like to calm down for a final 2.6.11 now, so please note 
anything really important I missed, but keep the rest pending. And give 
this a good testing..

Oh, and the automated bitkeeper mirroring to bkbits.net seems slightly
broken right now (hasn't updated in the last 48 hours), but the tar-balls
are all there, and the BK upating mechanism will hopefully be fixed soon.

(I've got a few BK trees in private places, it's only the public
bkbits.net one that hasn't gotten mirrored out yet - many other BK
developers will know where to find my secondary trees and can pull from
them instead).
