I take it that you are referring to our argument. I never said that we |
| 9 |
would not change cycles, I just said that we would not do it mid-year. |
| 10 |
There has been an expectation for awhile now that the release cycle is |
| 11 |
going to change for 2005. Re-read the logs. |

And we don't want the server project to get in the way of releng's |
| 23 |
progress. We (releng) are willing to work with you and cooperate in any |
| 24 |
way that we can, but judging from the above quote, as well as past |
| 25 |
experience with you, let's hope that our projects can in fact "happily |
| 26 |
co-exist" without one side strong-arming for the top position. |
