Just my opinion, but I think that is too aggressive of a timeline. I realize that the proposed 6.5 actually *builds*, but has anyone actually tried using it, in real-life situations? I don't think two weeks is enough time for anyone to build a functional desktop and/or server system and actually test it out, especially with BLFS lagging so badly. Half the BLFS instructions probably don't work with LFS-6.5, which makes the building process of an actual functional machine even harder and longer. Just my thoughts. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.25] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 10:39:02 up 11 days, 23:07, 1 user, load average: 1.11, 0.62, 0.51 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
