Hi, It doesn't show any sloppiness, it just means that the announce has been made a few days after the release. You can check it by many ways: - http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/sarge/ChangeLog - at the end of the page http://release.debian.org/stable/3.1/3.1r4/ > On an off note, when is Etch going to be declared stable?

You can follow the development of Etch on http://www.debian.org/releases/testing/ and related links, and also on the lists debian-devel-announce, debian-release, etc. Etch has been freezed, so the release becomes sooner. Etch will be released when it's ready, as usual :-) Regards, -- Simon Paillard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
