Ok,
 there it is in all the normal places (or will be, once mirroring 
finishes).

It's mainly drivers updates (firewire sbp2 driver, infiniband ipath 
driver, some DVB updates, and some mmc, network, spi and usb driver 
stuff).

But there's a few netfilter and sctp updates too, and various random 
one-liners around.. As usual, the shortlog is pretty readable, and gives a 
reasonable view into the details.

This will hopefully be the last -rc before the final 2.6.17, knock wood..

		Linus
