First, I was asking Warly a legitmate question. I, and many others that I know
would like a little solid info about 9.0's release other than it was supposed
to be out on the 13th.
Second, I see NONE of the problems that a select few have been seeing in the
distro (and yes I have a PS/2 mouse that works, a USB keyboard and a AWE 64
SB.) In fact, I've been testing it on over six machines with WIDELY different
hardware configurations. To hold off on release for, what I perceive is
nothing more than hardware conflicts on a very small percentage of test
systems that could be nothing more than the fact that they probably haven't
synced to the package set recently enough, is foolhardy.
Third, I'm under pressure from my LUG that I run to find out when the ISO's
will be available. We are running an install session soon. We really don't
want to have to upgrade their machines like a week later when 9.0 comes out.
So I'm asking the source, the Mandrake developers that are actively on the
cooker list.
Finally, I really don't appreciate being yelled at over email. It only puts me
in a bad mood.
Look I understand that you want to have a polished distribution, however, I
really don't think that Mdk can keep shoving the release date back further
and further just to fix things that really, as I said before, are probably
machine specific and not the distros fault.
