Coinciding with superbowl Sunday is the release of kernel 2.6.20. From Linus’ announcement:
As ICD head analyst Walter Dickweed put it: “Releasing a new kernel on Superbowl Sunday means that the important ‘pasty white nerd’ constituency finally has something to do while the rest of the country sits comatose in front of their 65” plasma screens”.
The big features for 2.6.20 (at least for virtualization nerds) are paravirtualization support (x86) and KVM support (x86 and x86_64).
