CTOnews.com, October 19 (Xinhua)-- Linus Torvalds, the "father of Linux", recently released RC 1 version of Linux 6.1, which implements basic support for the Rust programming language, with few changes.

In the email, in addition to introducing the features of the new version, Linus particularly criticized some kernel developers, saying that "it's really annoying to get a lot of submissions in the last few days."

He said that the Linux version merge window had two weeks, which would have given him enough time to review the patches, but some people always submit the merger on "the Friday of the second week", which is similar to the practice of high school students catching up on homework is bad and should be changed after high school graduation.

Linus went on to say that developers should have patches ready before the Linux kernel merge window opens, not after it is opened. He understands that everyone will slack off sometimes, but he shouldn't use the merge window closing date as a deadline every time.

CTOnews.com learned that the first candidate version of Linux kernel 6.1 (RC) is now available and ready for use by testers, early adopters, and early adopters, with a final release expected in early or mid-December 2022.
