Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 8 iso images updated

This is a nonsensical thing to say and I grow tired of people saying it.  
"Stable" means one of two things: either that it doesn't crash normally, or  
that it isn't going to change. It's obvious that you mean the former. But  
Trisquel was never unstable in this sense, regardless of what kind of alpha  
state it was in. No new software is being developed by it, and the software  
included is all long-standing and reliable (e.g. Linux and GNU), so why would  
it crash? Talking about how often a GNU/Linux system crashes is therefore  
completely meaningless in most cases.

What actually varies is, how complete is the system? The answer for Trisquel  
8 is: very incomplete. It's ready for testing (e.g. to help its development  
or see if it works with your hardware), but it's generally not ready for real  
use because packages are missing and there's no particular guarantee at this  
time that the system won't break because of packaging changes (although I  
assume it probably won't). You can still use it if you're OK with that, but  
that is the situation, so if you're not OK with that, you should stick with  
Trisquel 7 for now.
