  To: linux-kernel, Andrew Morton, torvalds, stable

We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.27.5
kernel.

It contains a wide range of bugfixes, and all users of the 2.6.27 kernel
series are strongly encouraged to upgrade.  Very strongly.  Did I
mention that you all should upgrade?  Seriously, what are you waiting
for?  Running those old kernel trees prior to .27?  Are you crazy?  You
really want to run this one.  It's all shiny new and has that lovely
new-kernel smell that we all know and love.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.27.4 and 2.6.27.5

The updated 2.6.27.y git tree can be found at:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.27.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
        http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.27.y.git;a=summary

thanks,

greg k-h
