We cover user groups that are running in Bulgaria. This article forms part of our Linux Around The World series.
The two-week merge window for Linux kernel 6.3 opened automatically with the release of Linux 6.2, and now, the first Release Candidate (RC) development version is available for early adopters, distro maintainers, and bleeding-edge users who want to get a glimpse of what’s about to be included in the final release.
As expected, Linux kernel 6.3 will introduce several new features and improvements, as well as new and updated drivers for better hardware support.
So after several releases where the merge windows had something odd going on, we finally had just a regular "two weeks of just merge window". It was quite nice.
In fact, it was quite nice in a couple of ways: not only didn't I have a hugely compressed merge window where I felt I had to cram as much as possible into the first few days, but the fact that we _have_ had a couple of merge windows where I really asked for people to have everything ready when the merge window opened seems to have set a pattern: the bulk of everything really did come in early.
And again, that just makes the merge window work nicer for me, when I don't sit there waiting, knowing that there's stuff pending that just hasn't had a pull request done yet.
So it all felt rather good. Of course, the fact that I had no machine issues, no holidays, and no travel coming up, then meant that I may have noticed a few more of the "people, please write good commit messages for merges" issues, so there's a possible downside to me not being as hurried as the last few merge windows have been.
And of course, smooth or not, now that the merge window is closed, we need to make sure it all *works*. We had a couple of exciting merges already, and I think the fallout from that got sorted out, but I'm sure there's more to come. Let's hope the calming-down period of 6.3 works as well as the merge window did... Knock wood.
Anyway, as always, the shortlog is much too large to post, since we had 12500+ commits (and that's not counting the merges - closer to a thousand of those). So below is just my usual merge log which gives only a very high-level view of what I merged and from who. It all looks fairly normal, with ~55% of the patch being drivers, ~20% being architecture updates. and the rest being the usual random mix (documentation, tooling, networking, filesystem, and just core kernel stuff).
Please do test,

Introduction Let’s start by clarifying what we mean by cross-building and cross-packaging. Cross-compilation is the process of compiling source code on one platform, called the host, in order to generate an executable binary for a different target platform. The emphasis here is on the word “different”. The target platform may have a different CPU architecture, such as when we work on an x86 computer and want to build software for a Raspberry Pi board with an ARM CPU.
Bash is a powerful scripting language that is widely used in Linux and Unix environments for automation and system administration. With Bash scripting, system administrators can automate repetitive tasks, manage servers, and perform complex operations.

Language and culture differences make getting help difficult, but then there's also admitting that you're unhappy in your dream destination.
Culture- a word that implies a specific society’s normative beliefs, customs, values, disciplinary chains, way of conduct, and behavior pattern also. In the simplest word, Culture is what we are. Before having a grave air in this discussion, let’s have a break by taking a deep breath into the fresh air.

8-bit Commodore computers aside, my first love is still probably DOS. It was the first OS I had experience with as a kid, even before the old Apple IIs my primary school inherited. We’re spoiled for choice when it comes to virtualising it on our contemporary systems, and there’s still (mostly) a wide availability of software and drivers available.
(If I could tap into my inner Amelia Watson or Ouro Kronii, I’d travel back to the early 1990s and whisper AMIGA into my dad’s ear before he bought home our first family PC clone. But then, he specifically bought a PC because he used XTs and ATs at work, so that would likely have not made a difference. One can dream).
But in another form of what I dub the Buffet Problem, you end up downloading a ton of stuff into various folders, and it quickly becomes unwieldy. As an example, I’ll buy a EGA graphics card for an old machine, and soon my current desktop is full of archives and folders of various drivers, utilities, and versions of those drivers and utilities to try. Being from different places and times, there’s no consistency to their naming, or archive type. Even if something works, I soon forget which it was, and the whole exercise repeats.
