The right move for sure.  But if I may say this.  SuSE has announced a
very different tact.  Much longer life cycles and a move toward less
frequent releases.  I'm not saying SuSE did it, you do it too.  But
rather pointing out that someone is doing it, so it should be
monitored.  Sooner or later though, Linux won't need the high speed
release cycle (and I'm sure a lot of people at MDK will welcome the
release in pressure.)  The question from my perspective is not how do we
stop the train ... but rather how do we keep it rolling.  How do we take
the momentum and move it into 9.2 and beyond.  Maybe just explaining the
process will be a strong start in that direction.  I did my first beta
testing with MDK 7.0 (nightly mirrors and installs from the mirror.) I'm
not sure I understand it all.
