[Bug 264019] Re: unable to visit some websites and ftpsites with 2.6.27

[Steve Langasek]

Good point regarding the opacity of the release note entry's title,
thanks.  I've updated this now to read:

  Unable to browse some websites when connected to particular Internet
providers

I'm reluctant to name particular ISPs or routers in our release notes
because we haven't established what routers have the bug.  Given that
users have reported it with Verizon with multiple models of DSL routers
it seems likely that the problem lies with Verizon's routers and not
with the Westells themselves, but interjecting guesses into the release
notes isn't what we want to be doing.

And yes, this is a question of being able to release on time /at all/,
not just a question of QAing the result.  But we can aim to have the
fixed kernel available ASAP after the 8.10 release.
