Oops. Linux-2.6.31-libre wouldn't build if you enabled the usbdux drivers in staging. Non-Free firmware name deblobbing error. Fixed in 2.6.31-libre1.

Aside from that, there are changes to the deblobbing of Radeon, R128 and MGA drivers, in preparation for the removal of the non-Free firmware from the drivers proper, and some improvements contributed by Trisquel's Rubén Rodríguez Pérez to make it easier to run the deblob scripts on a kernel that's already partially deblobbed, or for a different variant or base release.

Along with 2.6.31-libre1, 2.6.27.34-libre2 and 2.6.30.7-libre were released, and binary packages for Freed-ora 12 testing are underway.
