This is a scheduler policy rewrite designed to be interactive by design 
without tweaks or tuning and be lean and extensible for all sorts of 
settings. (see previous announcements for more detail).

Patches (including incrementals from previous versions) against 2.6.7 
and 2.6.7-ck2 can be downloaded from:
http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/2.6/


Changes since v7.4:

Two major bugs:
- Nanosecond to jiffy conversion meant it was possible to queue a task 
with no timeslice. Fixed.
- The preempt logic I added to 7.4 to allow preempted tasks to continue 
where they left off turned out to be a DoS recipe. Fixed.

Cleanup:
- Cleaned up comments.

Additions:
- None! Aiming for stability in this release.


Thanks to all those giving feedback I've been able to track down quite 
subtle bugs.

Please test, comment
