A lot of it has to do with me being busy in real life and not having the |
9 |
time I was expecting to have to work on catalyst. But I am now clearing |
10 |
up my schedule so this should slowly start to change. |

I agree that we're a bit late. Zhen's made it clear that being late is |
13 |
"OK". We hope that arch leads will try their best to release sooner |
14 |
rather than later, but that being said, you should also be enjoying your |
15 |
real life, getting sleep, and not feel like you are under a tremendous |
16 |
amount of pressure. Work as hard as you can work while still keeping the |
17 |
work and your life enjoyable. An arch's 2004.0 release can hit mirrors |
18 |
when it's ready, and 2004.1 (after the catalyst transition) will be a |
19 |
piece of cake. |

Long term, everyone is most productive when they are happy and not under |
22 |
pressure. So work as hard as you can while still having fun, and if we |
23 |
miss a deadline because we had some coordination quirks, so be it. |
24 |
Gentoo will survive. I do not mind being late this time because the |
25 |
investment we make in getting catalyst working for all arches will pay |
26 |
off big time for 2004.1, 2004.2, 2004.3, etc. |

So I guess you can say that I see light at the end of the tunnel. |
