Now that we are in a process of "continuous development" without expecting to make a release, putting some copies in the museum would be a very good idea. I'm less enamoured of the "every x months" idea, and I don't particularly agree that cleaning up started about a month ago (unless you only care about removing old packages). If anybody cares, before I started merging the gnome-3 stuff I put what wasthe current book at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~ken/blfs-book-gnome2-2012-01-20/ and it will stay there for a few more months. More generally, if we could agree on when the significant milestones in the book were, then we could pull out the revisions. But I don't hold out much hope that we *can* agree :) ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
