of course we are not anybody's slave. but we can do things in more or less clever way as far as distros is concerned. thats why i want to have bugs solved rather in 2.0.0 than in 2.0.1 when possible. talking about 10% is somewhat joking when the whole project is in existence because of the spirit of this fraction and is highly noncorrespondent to the developers orientation percentage as well ;) > releasing every 2 weeks we will attract more testers and the number of > showstoppers will converge with every release to zero. This way we also there is no convergence when there is no fixing. statusbar is broken, the bug is known half a year and its fix is prone to introduce new problems in dispatch when we speak about convergence. at least next two weeks i dont have spare evening for coding. others have the same problem, thats it. > > no internet is not such a big deal in case we have some small wifi router > > to setup local network. > > Why do we need such a network?

(?) some weekend is possible for me when i know it in advance. maybe we can create the similar table for nov/dec as last year to have some overview. pavel
