[ANNOUNCE] kmod 6

[Lucas De Marchi]

Hey!! kmod 6 is out:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kmod/kmod-6.tar.xz
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kmod/kmod-6.tar.sign

The first noticeable change is that we are now hosting kmod on
kernel.org. The new repository can be found here:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git;a=summary

This version is very shorter than previous and this only indicates we
are reaching a maintenance phase. Everyone is advised to upgrade from
previous versions (including distros packaging kmod 5 and wanting to
freeze in that version). There were some important bugs fixed. Check
NEWS file for more information:
