Linus has finally released the 2.6.14 kernel. It was delayed while various problems - some of which turned out not to be real - were chased down. "But hey, the delays - even when perhaps unnecessary - got us to look at the code and fix some other bugs instead. So it's all good." A very small number of patches went in since 2.6.14-rc5. Major changes in 2.6.14 include a new version of the wireless extensions, the HostAP system (which allows a Linux system to function as a wireless access point), relayfs, the DCCP network protocol, the filesystems in user space patch, v9fs, securityfs, and more.Read the changelog or the full changelog.
