    (temp copy at http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/2.6.14-rc2-mm2.gz)

    - A bunch of memory management updates

    - The big pcmcia changes have been temporarily dropped

    - Multiple obscure tty drivers still won't compile

    - Lots of post-2.6.14-rc2-mm1 patches have been cheerfully tossed out
      again due to various bugs, which felt nice.

    - I am offline until October 9. Please send critical 2.6.14 fixes direct to
      Linus.
