[PLUG] What is changing with Linux 3.0.4?

The Linux 3.0.4 kernel is the current kernel.  What is changing from the
long running 2.6 series which has gotten up around 2.6.40 or so?

CentOS 6 unfortunately is down at the 2.6.34 kernel level.  I'm curious
if there are stability and/or other end of life issues for the 2.6
kernel?

Is it true that you have to have a gigabyte or more of ram now to
install CentOS 6?  Huh, my old servers don't have that.
