Kurt It's downloading right now- And if it wasn't clear to the non-2.5-development people out there, yes you _should_ also test this code out even before the freeze. The IDE layer shouldn't be all that scary any more, and while there are still silly things like trivially non-compiling setups etc, it's generally a good idea to try things out as widely as possible before it's getting too late to complain about things.. I might report on what happens tomorrow, as long as it compiles and don't lose my data. I'd have it by now if it weren't for my 28.8k connection and kernel.org being down for part of the day.

Money for what? Sure its going to be a significant change.

I bought the WS 3.1 to avoid the huge upgrade gap from COL 2.4 (kernel 2.2.). ... ok, we got gentoo and linux-from-scratch now, but I am not ready for them. Net Llama! wrote: Money for what?
