machine.
- Look for Thomas Marteau and other members of ESIEE www.pateam.org
at Linux Expo in Paris. They will be showing off PA RISC Linux en francais!
- Matthew Wilcox has completed the 2.4.0 kernel merge. Head of the tree is now linux_2.4.0 and is marked with the LINUS_240_DEVEL tag.
- More work on the A500 from Richard Hirst. Fixes in sys32_select() that make 'reboot', and 'init 6' function correctly.
