It just shows there is no clear leadership or direction for this project.
People want updated ISOs because it contains newer kernels and the current
ISO is over a year old. Their requests get ignored, the 6.01 ISO is stuck in
"testing" limbo, and who knows if it is ever made official down the road.
Why is a new ISO also important? Ubuntu 12.04 was released in April 2012 and
Trisquel 6 was released in March 2013, meaning that Trisquel is about a year
behind in the Ubuntu release. With that track record, Trisquel 7 will not be
released until March/April 2015.
A new ISO is important becuase people get new hardware and the 3.2 kernel is
too old. Canonical recognized this and that's why there are point releases
for their LTS products including newer kernel and xserver updates.
So what is the problem? Canonical does the majority of the work for you in
the packaging. Sure, you guys deblob the kernel and turn Firefox into
Abrowser, but the majority of the packages are untouched. Just release the
damn 6.01 ISO with the Saucy kernel and call it a day.
