*On a more positive note, some of the key performance issues were identified and fixed so performance doesn’t regress for usage without hash equivalence. Several corruption issues and other key fixes to runqueue also merged.
*Patch merging has been delayed due to vacations (RP and Ross) so the final feature patches aren’t resolved yet.
*Jason Wessel finally tracked down our mystery glibc-locale bug, which was not a pseudo issue. Thanks and kudos to Jason!
*If anyone has any status items for the proj
*General patch merging is currently delayed along with patch feedback due to the hash equivalence issues and lack of bandwidth to progress everything at once.
*We still need to make a decision on systemd or sysvinit defaults as the init system.
*We are a week away from the 3.0 feature freeze.
