Well, that would imply waiting for May 1 or whenever the physical CD's are available. Starting now with a -current snapshot means getting everything working in the meantime and then ordering the new CD's and installing the -release (or -stable) files without worrying about flag days. We are very close to locking 5.5 so very little major will be changing between now and CD delivery. .... Ken > > Lee
