News
====

OpenAFS master is still unable to build on Linux 4.18 release candidates, due
to put_page() inadvertently becoming GPL-only. However, a Linux fix has been
tested to work for OpenAFS. This fix is working through the pipeline and is
expected to be available in a Linux 4.18 release candidate soon.
