| schestowitz[TR2] | <blockquote> | Jul 30 09:57 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <p>First, let's look at why this update is so big. Over one-third of the entire patch focuses on networking. This happened because many networking developers attended conferences during the previous week. So, they had a lot of "pent up work" to submit all at once. Most of these networking changes involve hardware drivers rather than core code. </p> | Jul 30 09:57 |
