Misleading title and article. Linus is pissed that the latest release candidate is "noticeably bigger than [the previous one]". He's right to be pissed. That's not how a good release process should work. Each release candidate should have a less stuff in it than the previous one. The more stuff you add, the more bugs you introduce. Hence his plea "So don't [send me non-critical stuff]. Send me just fixes to serious problems. Ok?"
Here's a link to the actual mailing list post (not "Linus' blog" as the blogspam article claims, and incorrectly links): http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1306.1/00108.html http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1306.1/00108....
