Last I heard, at http://lwn.net/2001/1018/kernel.php3 Linus was still teasing 
us about it.

Interesting how much work seems to get done on the "stable" series with Alan 
Cox accepting the more risky changes into the ac series, if they work Linus 
merges them with his series.  My guess is that they are trying it this way 
for as long as they can get away with it.  Once there is a 2.5 development 
series all the new stuff will get thrown into that and it might be a couple 
of years (based on past experience) until it turns into something stable, 
which some might consider to be bad_for_business.
