1 Hi everyone,
2
3 I just stabilized 3.2.61-r2, 3.14.12-r2, 3.15.5-r2 on amd64 and x86.
4 These are just one version bump beyond the previous stables. The reason
5 is that these add a minor fix to dma stuff for usb dvd drives. The
6 previous versions were rapid stabilized because of some CVE's out there
7 so they didn't have the time they needed to "settle down" --- by which I
8 mean upstream grsec/pax didn't have time to catch all the fallout of the
9 previous injection of new features.

11 In about one week I'll remove the immediately previous stable versions
12 3.2.61-r1, 3.14.12-r1, 3.15.5-r1, but keep the even older stables for
13 people who are comfortable with them.
