12 Considering that the "most recent official release" is 2008.0_beta2, I
13 don't see where you have a point, at all.

15 Sure, you're going to mention something about being labeled a beta, to
16 which my response will be that you're simply backpedaling and changing
17 the facts to suit your needs. After all, looking at /releases on the
18 mirrors, I see a nice and shiny 2008.0_beta2 on all of the
19 officially-supported arches.

21 Isn't it about time that you gave up on your little mission to
22 consistently undermine the hard work put in by a community of
23 volunteers?

25 Of course not... You need to stroke your ego some more. Pfft...
