No it doesn't. RH has *never* published release dates. At least not in
the time between 4.1 and now. MS *always* publishes release dates and
*misses* them royally. That's quite different. RH - in this regard -
doesn't make promises it can't keep, which I think is a *good* thing.
It's bad enough that they feel obliged to release buggy products by
market pressure (at least that's the benevolent explanation I can come
up with...). I'm beginning to wonder where the times are were things
were either "released when ready" (isn't Linus still handling this -
or at least trying to?) or "released early and released often". Both
have their merits.

Cheerio,

Thomas (who still uses RH 7.3 for a reason...)
