I won't be unreasonable in this (and as seen at least one of the key distros has answered the call by now). We have said earlier that a key set of distros should leave a go inside the release process to make sure that the major build and integration errors are overcome. The key distros as far as I see it are: - Debian - Ubuntu - Fedora - OpenSUSE If other distros chip in and tell us that it works for them I see that as a bonus and will take that into account when going forward. For this release I would not necessarily wait for a go from the (l)ubuntu camp because I think we can cope with potential failures in a new release before their next freeze (late European summer or something). I did add arch in my previous list because I think there were some arch person around earlier, I have omitted them here on purpose. So where do we stand? There has been some translations added and OpenSUSE says it works; I can tag and make the tar.gz and write parts of a release note and announcement for the blog but I am not sure that I can upload the file to sf.net. I'll check the things closer and post another thread about this. -- /brother http://martin.bagge.nu Bruce Schneier's social security number is a Sophie Germain prime number having a reciprocal generating an infinite stream of pseudorandom numbers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
