I'll be doing the Alpha release as usual. The Alpha release will be
pretty much the same as 2005.1, so we'll have 2.6 + nptl as default
profile but still support 2.4 for people who wants that. I'm not going
to make a LiveCD with X support and other fancy support as I don't have
any way of testing that on a reasonable number of boxes.

And as a small surprise we'll probably have SELinux stages + installcd
in time for 2006.0. I guess that'll live in experimental/ although
there's been no discussion about that so far.

As time schedules go I'll probably attend FOSDEM too but don't have any
exams (just lots of work :). So the time schedule doesn't matter too
much to me as long as it doesn't conflict with FOSDEM.
