Funny, I was actually just thinking of that last night before I went to |
| 17 |
bed. I see that quarterly releases for stages/grp package sets are |
| 18 |
needed, but I really don't see a need for quarterly livecd releases. |
| 19 |
There needs to be enough time to work out bugs/implement new features, |
| 20 |
etc. The only thing that I can see for quarterly releases is driver |
| 21 |
upgrades on the kernels used on the livecds. So, that may be debatable. |

(mind you, any changes I suggest would start in the 2005.x release |
| 26 |
schedule) |
