[Cooker] Kernel 2.6 cutover?

2003-11-14 Thread Robert Fox
Just wondering, what is the rough development plan for Cooker?
Specifically, at what stage will the kernel 2.6 series be the focus and
the 2.4 go to contribs?

Is it a stated goal that the 2.6 kernel (not withstanding and critical
show stopper) will be the main kernel for Mandrake 10.0 (due roughly
next March?)

The sooner we get kernel 2.6 into the mainstream Cooker - the more
testing will take place . . . or is it too soon?

Thanks,
R.Fox

IMNSHO this is post-next release task. Actually i would even delay
it for release 11 :))

there are just too many problems to solve

If my voice counts - no.

IMNSHO it should be in as an alternative, with everything tweaked to 
work perfectly both under 2.4  2.6

there are really a lot of  improvements and new features in 2.6

:(
so far no one (officialy)  stated anything about 2.6 and mdk-10.0, am i
wrong ?

  testing will take place . . . or is it too soon?
 
 agreed :)
 

me too,
but a lot of external drivers/ features are missing

anyone having url's of projects that are porting their drivers/ features to
2.6 ?

the question was when should it become the main kernel. Of course
it should be available, even for marketing reasons.

OK, but IMO it should be available as a replacement of the main kernel
with all the added features fully functional, not as it current availability
and in mdk9.2
 (a small part of missing teatures :  lvm, nfs4, ea, lsm,...)

there are a lot of core changes to be done, and i think it's really time to
start
but nothing seems to happen, and no one stated anything
