Natty kernel repository

[Tim Gardner]

Some of you may have noticed the appearance of the Natty kernel 
repository a few weeks ago. I think it is now time to get serious about 
the next release since Maverick is pretty well in the can.

git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-natty.git

This is a development kernel which is rebased frequently against Linus' 
upstream repository at 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git. If 
that doesn't make sense to you, then start reading the material at 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel, in particular 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev.

The Natty kernel source package won't be uploaded until after the Natty 
release pocket opens for business, so you're on your own for building 
binaries. That also implies the ABI won't change until we start doing 
official uploads. Beware of external modules!

I've created a dropped.txt file in the repo that is a list of the 
patches that didn't survive the transition from Maverick (attached here 
for your viewing convenience). If there is something in that list that 
is important to you, then by all means send a patch to this mailing list.
