Linus Torvalds announced this weekend yet another (probably the last) Release Candidate of the upcoming Linux 3.3 kernel.

Linux kernel 3.3 RC6 incorporates updates and improvements for NTFS, GFS2, VFS, ALSA, Bluetooth, as well as some DRM fixes.

"Hmm. Nothing much to say about this -rc: it really is all small fixes and cleanups. In fact, it's been calm enough that this *might* be the last -rc, but we'll see how the upcoming week goes."

"If it stays calm (and hopefully even calms down some more), there doesn't seem to be any major reason to drag out the release cycle any more." - said Linus Torvalds in the email announcement.

Download Linux kernel 3.3 RC6 right now from Softpedia. Remember that this is a development release and it is intended for testing purposes only.
