[ANNOUNCE] re-branched branches/7.0

Hi all,

as we did too much valuable and 7.0-worthy CROSS compile improvements
after we branched off the 7.0 branch we quickly decided to re-branch it, which
is also why there went no significant merged into the 7.0 branch over the last
past weeks.

The 7.0 branch was now re-created from trunk, with just the 2.6.22 kernel
updated reverted (as this does not appear to be very stable on x86-64):

19:34 < CIA-24> rene * r25452 /branches/7.0/package/ (6 files in 3 dirs): 
19:34 < CIA-24> * reverted r24963, r24920, r24926, r24925 in branches/7.0: 
downdated
19:34 < CIA-24>  linux26 (2.6.22.1 -> 2.6.21.5) as well as unionfs and 
squashfs-tools
19:37 < Ragnarin> O_O
19:37 < Ragnarin> why the downdate?
19:38 < rxr> that is just in the 7.0 branch
19:38 < rxr> oopses all the time on my MacBook in x86-64, 64bit, mode
19:38 < rxr> also noone appears to have the time to fix all the third pary 
modules, while with 2.6.21 
             we had them all fixed up

Also note that there was a glibc maintenance release update from
2.6.0 -> 2.6.1, which also fixes a ABI breakage on x86 introduced with
2.6.0.

From now on we'll have to merge the security and bug-fix updates and patches
into the branches/7.0, likewise.

We'll spin a 7.0-rc2 binary release the next days.

Have fun - yours,
