Busy week so far.
We've gone from 2.1.9.13 to .14 to 2.2-rc1 and then 2, all in the space of a few days. The .14 release was mentioned in the last entry - corrupted tree. Then I finally found the cause of an annoying bug, the last one I'd been searching for. That got me happy enough to make 2.2-rc1. This afternoon Linus released 2.6.13-rc7, and I had a few more little fixes to pop in (gcc 3.4 doesn't like being told we're clobbering all the registers, so we have to lie to it, and there was a int vs ul problem with the lzf compressor on amd64). So we're at 2.2-rc2. Now to get on with preparing a git tree.
