I had a phone conversation with Guy Maor. He says he'll make the release
next week. He says he has no problem with the version numbering scheme.
He was not waiting for me. He says he understands why someone would be
impatient with 67 megs sitting there, and says that bo-updates was only
a temporary solution and this should not be the usual state of our release
engineering.
A substantial part of that 67MB is the X change for Richard Stallman.
XDM prints "Debian GNU/Linux" rather than "Debian Linux". All of X got
rebuilt to keep the release numbers consistent. I have no problem
accomodating Richard, but I don't need to rush this change to every last
user and make them spend money to get it, do I?
Thanks
Bruce
