-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Howdy, In all likelihood, the situation will resolve itself eventually. Once Linus decides to start the 2.5 development cycle, 2.4 kernel maintenance will fall to Alan Cox, the "heir apparant". Since Alan is still including the van Riel VM in his -ac kernel patches, it still remains to be seen as to which implementation he'll go with. Apparently some recent patches by van Riel have stabilized the -ac VM to the point where it's now a pretty worthy contender. For those that are interested in what's going on between the two implementations as well as some performance benchmarks, check out LWN's summary: http://lwn.net/2001/1018/kernel.php3 Cheers!
