It's Sunday, so Linus Torvalds had just announced the third Release Candidate (RC) version of the upcoming Linux 4.1 kernel, which should be released sometime in Summer.

According to Linus Torvalds, Linux kernel 4.1 RC3 is a Mother's Day release that brings in mostly updated drivers, especially for InfiniBand, various improvements to the ARM architecture, updated file systems and documentation, as well as perf tooling.
