It'd be nice if kernel hackers would spend some minutes adding their stuff here. The one place where you can find a comparable changelog are the fabulous LWN kernel articles: http://lwn.net/Kernel/, or the [http://lwn.net/Articles/driver-porting/ driver porting guide] - but there's no reason why the kernel community shouldn't embrace and extend those efforts ;) | List of the major changes done to each Linux kernel release. Other places to get news about the Linux kernel are [http://lwn.net/Kernel/ LWN kernel status], [http://lwn.net/Articles/2.6-kernel-api/ LWN list of API changes in 2.6], ["KernelPodcast"] or [http://www.lkml.org www.lkml.org]. List of changes of older releases can be found at Linux26Changes. If you're going to add something here look first at LinuxChangesRules! |
