But I think the Alpha and SPARC distributions are still in development, right? Anyway this explains why we need more than one CD. Thanks for clarifying it. Ramos. --- J.

With a little luck ;-) the next release will overflow one cd but leave room on the second for whatever unstable development is available although I will probably use that space to provide a "boot from CD" root file system.

Re: 1.2 release?
1.2 is released. The announcement went out yesterday on debian-announce and various other venues. There are two companies selling CD-writables of Debian today: Dale Scheetz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I-Connect Co. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Infomagic is coming out with a CD set with 1.2 on it. This CD has already been mastered, and I don't know how long duplication will take. Bruce -- Bruce Perens K6BP [EMAIL PROTECTED] Finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for PGP public key.

1.2 release?
Will 1.2 be officially released soon? Also, when can I expect to find it on CD-ROM distributions (I'm NOT downloading all that stuff again...too slow!) Thanks, Chris. === Chris R.

Re: Debian 1.2 release date?
Hi, > Is the release of Debian 1.2 around the corner as scheduled? How about the PAckages with "Distribution: unstable" shouldnt we change this to Distribution: rex" since it would require changing if the new release becomes stable, too? Greetings Bernd
