Yesterday afternoon Linus Torvalds announced the release of the Linux 2.6.27-rc5 kernel. With the development cycle nearing an end, there isn't anything too exciting in regards to features but just bug-fixes and some minor changes. Most of the Linux 2.6.27-rc5 delta is made up of configuration file updates and updates to the ARM and PowerPC architectures. The Linux 2.6.27-rc5 release announcement can be read at LKML.org.
