I will end the current test cycle on next wednesday, may 24th. On that day I will install all the packages scheduled for installation.
During the two days after that, I will remove most of the packages that have release-critical bugs from potato. It may take more than two days, but I hope not. On Monday, may 29th, I will start the next test cycle. Monday will be the last day on which I install (or remove) packages; after that the archive will be quiet so that the boot-floppies and cd image teams can go to work. This time I would like to have more than one person standing by to make CD images. Note that it is quite likely that some of the packages I will remove will have bugs only in woody. Figuring that out for more than 100 reports is simply too much work for one person. If you know of such a bug, please put [woody] in the title to prevent its removal. On a related note, I sometimes see discussion on debian-devel about whether a bug really is release-critical. Such discussion is good and useful for gathering consensus. But discussing, agreeing, and then doing nothing will do nothing. Please follow up on such decisions. Richard Braakman [Please send discussion about this announcement to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
