Hi,

We're busy right now preparing beta1 and for that we took quite some package updates. So we didn't have a really meaningful rebuild since last status update. I hope the best for beta1, but I already expect a delay of at least one day - meaning announcement on friday.

OK, our initial testing already has shown several blocker bugs, that need fixing before we can do _anything_ with it ;( Same status today: beta1 far from being done. Those following opensuse-commit will know :(

Even considering lzma payload, yast/zypper improvements and smaller number of packages in default install, I don't see how this is possible. Hi Alexey, you should read the article not only the title - it is explained there.

The actual percentage should be 46% _not_ 743% unless some new math has come into play that we are not aware of. A 50% improvement would have had an install time of 21.5 minutes which was not achieved. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Well, I should think that a blog post title and its link could be different from a news title; (just thinking about a casual ubuntu user who read this official news :) ) Ok ok, I'll stop the italian humour... Ciao Roberto On Thu, Apr 17, 2008 at 5:31 PM, Francis Giannaros wrote:

I think a recalibration of everyone's humour detector is in order here :-)

Still, for those there is still a disclaimer in the blog post: "and yes, the title of this blog was fixed before I did the actual testing."

Kind thoughts, -- Francis Giannaros http://francis.giannaros.org
