My 0.93R6 system at home is the most stable linux system I have ever seen. Now that 1.1 is nearly ready for release, I agree that it is approaching the same level of stability. It is true that 0.93 probably is not compatible with some of the newer hardware and software, but it is certainly worthy of its status as a "stable" distribution. Regarding the removal of 0.93 from ftp sites, can't we keep it available as an "old" distribution? There may be some people who will want to continue using it for some time.
