We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.
 
     - futex bug fix (tglx)
     - hwlat latency detector module (Jon Cool Masters)

I have to say it works pretty well when you call someone a Slacker :)

Clark is working on user space tools which help you to use it w/o
fiddling module parameters. It's going to be in the next rt-tests
release which has a not yet defined schedule. I wonder whether I
should try that slacker trick again :)
