No 3.5 version on www.kernel.org

Hi,

when looking at http://www.kernel.org/, kernel 3.4.7 is shown as the
latest stable kernel, and 3.6-rc1 as the latest mainline kernel. The
3.5 version is not mentioned. Why is the latest stable kernel something
older than 3.5?

Regards,
Tino

Someone already asked this. Let's cc one more party (although
webmaster@.. could be going to the same people :-)).

Hi, Tino:

That's due to the way our script currently figures out what needs to go
to the front page. If I understand the code correctly, since there are
no 3.5.x releases, the script goes straight to 3.6-rc and 3.5 doesn't
get mentioned. Let's call that a "feature" until we have a fix. :)

You can, of course, still get 3.5 from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/
