you are probably better off with the deltas published
every time we change something, as the diff between
two rc's might include the changes between kernel
versions (and resulting changes) ... but I can assure
you, all you need is available :)

should have been out for a week now, but I'm experiencing
a lot of issues with my internet connectivity (absolutely
not related to Linux-VServer :) and so I had to delay
some of the planned testing ...

I'm pretty confident we will release within the 2.6.17
cycle (did you hear me murphy?) but as usual the slogan
is: "will be released when finished :)"

HTH,
