There'll be some shaking up depending on what happens in Linus' tree and what level of large bats people bring out to get things straightened out. It doesn't seem totally obvious right now where we are going to end (we as in the 2.4.x kernels in general). On the other hand I wouldn't take that Byte article too serious; his 'scientific' conclusions seems to be based on how much the mp3 player skips when loading large files into an editor. Cheers, Jes
