No, everyone is too worried about creating
testing/development/unstable/semi-stable/used-to-be-stable dists at the
moment.  An actual stable environment should be released in 2005.

Hello Mark A. Bialik [EMAIL PROTECTED],

2005? Are you kidding? How do you define stable in this way?
Where can we know the unfixed bugs which are supposed to be fixed in
so-called stable release?

This was a common English language device known as a Joke.  This
specific Joke probably fits somewhere in the dramatic irony category.
2005 is not a reasonable release date, but surely you have been
offline, naive or dead for the last few weeks if you get this list and
have not seen the enormous discussion threads about the woody
release...

No. We are waiting for the infrastructure for security updates to be
complete, and no date for that is available.

Good question, John!  A quick search of Debian Planet will point you to
several explainations, all running along the lines, Woody is
releasable, we just don't have a workable infrastructure for security
updates on all 11 architectures yet.  Stay tuned.

This answers two questions right now:

1) Barring (gauranteed controversial) intervention from aj(?), Mozilla
1.0 will *not* be in Woody.

2) Woody already *is* stable, just hasn't been moved to that tree yet on
a technicality.

Stick to your guns!
Its good to have a distribution that has such a wide range of 
hardware.  I'm actually looking forward to trying this out on PPC 
and Sun hardware to see how similar/different it is.
That and I think that Apple has the best looking hardware on the 
market for clients.
