Disappointing to see such an announcement without any prior discussion on
d-project, d-devel or d-vote. Some explanation of how and by who this
decision was reached would be appreciated.
The Release Team proposed a plan in the keynote at DebConf. There were
some important considerations, but in general the audience welcomed the
plan.
The announcement was made to avoid confusion and unclear press coverage.
So from now on we release "when it's time" instead of "when it's ready"?
RC bugs are no longer relevant?
No, we freeze in time, we release when ready. RC bugs are still one of
the measures to see when we are ready.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers
Luk
