I really haven't seen any plausible suggestions on shortening the release cycle. Does anyone have other ideas?
Possibilities: * reorganize the debian archive problem: no plausible/maintainable schemes yet proposed * shut down new-maintainer problem: don't see how it helps anything * stop accepting new packages until the release manager is happy about the state of the distribution -- I think this is the best yet -- basically, an early freeze with the possibility of unfreezing? * more active debian QA group -- Definately would help a lot, but how to recruite people into QA? * resign ourselves to one release every 8 months to a year and leave it at that, possibly giving more attention to fixing problems in stable I think what we should do is have Richard publicly state he'll start an early freeze once the boot-floppies is in shape. We are seeing renewed interest in boot-floppies, although I haven't seen that really turn into code yet. -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
