Hi!

The latest -mm patch to the stable Linux kernels is: 2.6.19-rc6-mm2
pavel@amd:/data/pavel$ head /data/l/linux-mm/Makefile
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 19
EXTRAVERSION = -mm1
...
pavel@amd:/data/pavel$

AFAICT 2.6.19-mm1 is newer than 2.6.19-rc6-mm2, but kernel.org does
not understand that.
Still true (not listed) for 2.6.20-rc1-mm1 :(

Could someone explain what the problem is and what it would
take to correct it?

2.6.20-rc1-mm1 still hasn't propagated out to the servers (it's been 36
hours). Presumably the front page non-update is a consequence of that.

Agreed on the latter part. Can someone address the real problem???
