Hi, Here goes the second release candidate for v2.4.30.
It contains a bunch of security updates (ext2 mkdir leak, af_bluetooth range checking, isofs corrupt media, load_elf_library DoS), an ia64 update, another round of networking fixes, amongst others. If nothing terrible shows up, this will become v2.4.30. Please help with testing!
