Hi. I wanted to comment on your blog, but the comments are closed :(
I'd like to hear more about the SX:DE schedule (any pointers?) and
note that while once per quarter is nice for stabilization, I would
consider that at the conservative end of things. Rather, I would hope
for something closer to a build or two every six weeks, especially
considering those multiple distributions you mentioned.
