"The situation is now more manageable, although the volume of updates remains above the usual level for this phase. Development is proceeding at a calmer pace than before."
"The composition of the recent updates underscores that the focus has now shifted to refinement, with most changes being driver updates for graphics hardware and networking."
"The easing pressure in the second half of the development process reduces the likelihood of a release delay, benefiting users with quicker access to support for recent hardware."
Linux 7.0 development is stabilizing after an intense start, with the fifth release candidate showing a decrease in workload. Linus Torvalds indicates that while updates remain above normal levels, the pace is calmer. The focus has shifted to refining driver updates, particularly for graphics and networking, typical for this phase. The reduced pressure in development lowers the chances of delays, allowing quicker support for recent hardware. The usual kernel cycle pattern is being deviated from, but the threat of extension appears to be diminishing.
