Definitely so. I'm still getting lots of reports about Send queue out of order, which is a pretty nasty item, and several double lock on device queue customers. Also two batches of reports with common themes
o panics/crashes/oopses with DE4x5 driver o Cycles of socket destroy delayed with the PCMCIA network drivers. Im suspicious it may be a driver bug this time.
I think pre Linux Kongress will be a final pre release not a 2.0
