    Hej Julia!

    Linux version 6.19.10 (root@europoint) (gcc (GCC) 15.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.46.0.20260210) #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Mar 25 23:09:50 UTC 2026

    Didn't have to wait long to test a kernel upgrade on this newfangled scheme. Seems to have worked without changing anything else. I am sure that a kv-7 kernel will be a different story but that is getting way ahead of myself.

    As usual the bash-ist fidonet msg'ing thingy is up-to-snuff without any changes. That makes this all worthwhile, wouldn't you say?

    I believe I already did, but thanks for asking.

    The current wait is over. The new waiting period for version 8 begins now. ;)

    Hej Nick!

    Linux version 7.0.2-arch1-1 (linux@archlinux)

    I hope to be caught up later today with 7.0.3, but am currently bringing gcc-16 to the table;

    (gcc (GCC) 15.2.1 20260209

    $ gcc --version
    gcc (GCC) 16.1.0

    This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

    Just officially released earlier today. I think that makes us even. :-)

    The current wait is over.

    For you maybe but I still have at least about 6 hours if I do manage to get this current build up to speed. I may need another day but should know for sure by tomorrow ... I hope.

    The new waiting period for version 8 begins now. ;)

    Not without a gcc-16 upgrade. ;-)
