I will be asking the x86 and amd64 arch teams to mark the latest |
| 2 |
revision of gentoo-sources-2.6.19 stable in 1 weeks time (Jan 14th). |

This is a 1 week advance warning to maintainers of external kernel |
| 5 |
modules which are still broken in the stable tree -- fix them, or file |
| 6 |
new bugs asking for newer versions to go stable and block #156669 |

Actually, 1 week is the best-case scenario, since we have a couple of |
| 9 |
minor regressions which need fixing. Additional pressure comes from the |
| 10 |
mmap shared page corruption fix, a significant bug which has existed for |
| 11 |
at least 3 years. Unfortunately the fix has not been backported to older |
| 12 |
kernels and it's not clear how to do so. |
