Erm, no, doesn't even remotely. wesnoth 1.8 was just released last week, kernel 2.6 is pretty old already. > Wesnoth 1.8 is out.

I don't make the rules for the release schedule, I am just outlining the facts - which includes correcting the false reasoning of the original bug reporter that it wouldn't be possible to connect to the official servers anymore with 1.6. > Having the chance to install multiple versions of wesnoth may > be a cool feature for developers, but it's completely useless for > everyday users. That might be true, but it is a major difference in the packaging work and thus a point that needs to get raised because of the way the release works. If it will get ignored I'm fine with it, but I have been told at the last ubuntu release that an update of wesnoth won't happen because of major packaging changes. > How can I expect to fix bug #1 if you don't ship new software asap? asap might sometimes be too early. Even the hypothetical "enemy" of bug #1 is aware of that. Again, I'm not making the rules, I am just pointing out the facts that there are rules in place that might hinder this wish. There is always the option of going through the backports service - and I do plan to offer backports for the former releases too, once I managed to dig into the procedures for that enough.
