Re: Linux 3.0-rc1

Oh, and as some people already noticed, the numbering means that the
tar-balls and patches are now in a new directory:

/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0

(under "testing/", since that's what we do with -rc releases).
However, I did *not* rename the git tree, because that would just be a
huge inconvenience to git users, so it's still in the same old place
and yes, that means that my git tree is still called "linux-2.6.git"
on kernel.org. But it has the v3.0-rc1 tag in it.

I'll probably add a symlink or something, if people really hate being
reminded about our long history with the "2.6" numbering. But that
won't be until closer to the real release, methinks.
