Dear Lucas, > is there something that you would like to stress about the release > process or the upcoming release?
I think I would highlight that these indeed *are* outside the scope of the DPL, implicitly stressing Debian's decentralised nature; this structure makes Debian unique and very attractive for all sorts of use-cases so we shouldn't be justifying or apologising for it. I think these things are more important and more interesting to communicate than a laundry list of version numbers of the major software packages that we plan to release with. Regarding the status of the release itself, I would naturally check in with the release team and pass on whatever details they wished to publicise. And of course, the usual exhortations to "please test…" :) Regards, -- ,''`. : :' : Chris Lamb `. `'` la...@debian.org / chris-lamb.co.uk `-
