As if anyone would actually test those... We have those RCs before major releases, e.g.: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/9581 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/9618 This resulted in some less important reports, e.g. FreeBSD has a too old GLib version. However, remember the shitstorm when 3.5 was released and people actually started trying to use it? "OMG it's unusably slow" Uli P.S.: A week ago I mentioned on IRC that I'd do a new release. AFAIK this is why Emmanuel submitted his two patches. -- Do Not Touch The Jellyfish! Get Me To The Hosp Immediately -- To unsubscribe, send mail to awesome-devel-unsubscr...@naquadah.org.
