It seems we don't have a strict schedule if that schedule can be adapted. > IMHO we should first solve the issues and then make a beta release.

Did we really needed 5 alpha releases? I don't know how much effort this is for Linus. I assume the process is fairly automated. I'd prefer to see releases continue so long as we have more fixes than faults introduced since last release. > I'm not saying to drop the schedule, but to have more flexibility on it. > Because after all, having a schedule but never meeting the deadline is > not having a schedule. I think a date does help motivate. To miss a date is less important then having no date to aim for.
