In order not to do again the mistakes made with the zen update and 10.1, I think we should have _two_ feature freeze dates...
One for the _new things_ (patterns, Xorg 7...) and one for the _new releases_ of already used things (Kde, Gnome)
I think the latter are already tested by they developpers when the first seems already in a very early stage.
I'm disquieted by the "most annoying bugs" list and the _may be_ delayed Alpha 3.
I personnally think that a stable distribution is better
.than the very most up to date one.
Hi,
I was also very concerned when I saw the 'most annoying bugs' list today (as I epxected Alpha 3).
We have Alpha3. Bugs are expected ;)
Perhaps replacing Alpha with Devel would convey the right message to people, that these releases are development releases that are not feature-complete or in feature-freeze. After feature-freeze they could be called Alpha, Beta... It would avoid unnecessary discussion and panicking.. not everyone reads the milestone plan like they ought to :-)
