I think it's a good idea to do beta releases more regularly and it definitely makes sense to base the next beta on the 2.6.24 release which will also be used for etchnhalf. At the same time, I'm a bit unhappy because 2.6.25 will finally have support for the Orion (ARM) platform which I'd like to support in d-i soon, and putting out a beta based on 2.6.24 will delay Orion support quite a bit. Given we're doing a beta based on 2.6.22 now, how quickly could we get another beta based on 2.6.24 out? Can you be done relatively quickly after the beta based on 2.6.22? Another solution would be to backport Orion support from 2.6.25 to 2.6.24. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
