That seems very different to what's usually meant in Debian by "freeze" (and "freeze" was the term used in both the debian-announce and debian-devel-announce mails). AFAICS, a December agreement of that sort would mean a Debian freeze somewhere between January and March. > The rough guide I heard was that, if we looked at the list in December, > we'd probably be able to agree on things like the default versions of > Python, Perl, X and GCC, but that it might be harder on kernel, GNOME > and KDE. It'd be nice to hear from the release team if this was what they were considering... Cheers, aj -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
