\frametitle{The future of the PREEMPT\_RT patchset}
\begin{itemize}
- \item July 2014 status: the project is stalled because of lack
- of funding. Thomas Gleixner is still the maintainer but
- lacks time for further development and mainlining efforts.
- He must work on other topics that pay the bills!
- \item December 2014: the latest release is 3.14.10-rt7 (while
- mainline is 3.18).
- \item Contact (and contract) Thomas if you need further
- features and support for newer kernels.
- \item See \url{http://lwn.net/Articles/604695/}
+ \item Before Oct. 2015: project stalled because of the lack of funding.
+ Thomas Gleixner still the maintainer but lacked time for further
+ development and mainlining efforts. Patch releases only made
+ for specific kernel releases.
+ \item Oct. 2015: the Linux Foundation at last got funding
+ for mainlining the patchset into the Linux kernel (see
+ \url{http://lwn.net/Articles/659193/}).
+ \item There's at last a good chance for the patchset to be merged
+ by the end of 2016.
\end{itemize}
