Dear RT Folks,

You can get this release via the git tree at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git
branch: v3.6-rt

Or to build 3.6.11.2-rt34 directly, the following patches should be applied:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.6/patch-3.6.11.2-rt34.patch.xz
You can also build from 3.6.11.2-rt33 by applying the incremental patch:
