I feel that we should freeze the libs and move into app development *right_now* (mostly what coolo said on core-devel yesterday). For really important stuff that surfaces in the process of stabilising and getting apps in place, it should be possible to make exceptions to the freeze. Whether we want to call it alpha or beta, I don't know. It's not feature-complete from an application's point of view, but then, the release schedule is not clear on what's meant by a 'beta'. What date do others have in mind for a "total feature freeze, only bugfixes from now on"? I do also feel that I'm fairly inexperienced with this kind of stuff, never followed a big release like this really closely. That said, I'm quite confident in the state of what's there right now. -- sebas http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org | GPG Key ID: 9119 0EF9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The world is moving so fast these days that the man who says it can't be done is generally interrupted by someone doing it. - E.
