The HA technology, Distributed Replicated Block Device
(DRBD), is to be merged into the
official Linux kernel, probably from version 2.6.33.
The announcement came on the blog of Florian Haas from Linbit, the Austrian company,
specialized in High Availability, that until now has nurtured the DRBD code outside of the
mainline kernel. On December 8, highest kernel chief, Linus Torvalds, accepted the source
text into his kernel tree, which sometime next month should become the 2.6.33 release.

Meet TUZ
Linus Torvalds announced at the Australian Linux.conf.au that he wants to make the
conference mascot, the Tasmanian Devil (considering that the conference took place in
Hobart, Tasmania) the new logo for Linux Kernel 2.6.29.
Called "Tuz" for short, the carnivorous marsupial matched with Tux the penguin's beak was
designed partly to draw attention to the endangered Australian species and save it from
extinction.
