An anonymous reader writes "Linus Torvalds announced the Linux 3.12 kernel release with a large number of improvements through many subsystems including new EXT4 file-system features, AMD Berlin APU support, a major CPUfreq governor improvement yielding impressive performance boosts for certain hardware/workloads, new drivers, and continued bug-fixing. Linus also took the opportunity to share possible plans for Linux 4.0. He's thinking of tagging Linux 4.0 following the Linux 3.19 release in about one year and is also considering the idea of Linux 4.0 being a release cycle with nothing but bug-fixes. Does Linux really need an entire two-month release cycle with nothing but bug-fixing? It's still to be decided by the kernel developers." http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Linux+3.12+Released%2C+Linus+Proposes+ Bug+Fix-Only+4.0%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F1dGiR9E) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Flinux.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F13%2F11%2F04%2F011227%2Flinux-312-released-linus-proposes-bug-fix-only-40%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook ) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://linux.slashdot.org/story/13/11/04/011227/linux-312-released-linus-proposes-bug-fix-only-40?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)
