The 6.2-rc6 kernel prepatch is out for testing.
It's suspiciously small, but who am I to look a gift horse in the mouth? I'll take it and hope it's not an aberration, but instead a sign that 6.2 is shaping up nicely. Call me optimistic, call me naive, but let's enjoy it and hope the trend continues.
The plan is still to do an -rc8, though, meaning that the final 6.2 release can be expected on February 19.
