Kernel prepatch 6.6-rc6
The 6.6-rc6 kernel prepatch is out for testing. "So the previous week has been pretty calm, and a lot of the discussion has been about future changes as so often happens late in the release cycle."

Linux 6.6-rc6
So the previous week has been pretty calm, and a lot of the discussion has been about future changes as so often happens late in the release cycle.
But despite this rc not being anything particularly special, somebody made a musical video documentary about it all:

which is probably the most notable thing here.
But if you just want the usual textual version, it's appended below. The short version is that everything looks normal, and there's just the usual random fixes all over the place. So we'll see the final release in two weeks unless something odd happens. That ends up being a bit inconvenient for me, since the first week of the merge window will happen while I'm off for vacation travel, but hey, it's not the first time that happens, and it probably won't be the last. I'll deal.
