Several i2c stuff went in, and the latest IDE patch. Then again I have
lots of small patches which I consider considerable.

I redid the patches from William Lee Irwin as he suggested. I keep playing
with some different things, but nothing to talk about yet.

The whole patch is available at
<URL:ftp://luckynet.dynu.com/pub/linux/2.5.20-ct2/linux-2.5.20-ct2.patch.bz2>

The full ChangeLog is available at

The single patches are available at
