Both commands were typed equal.
I can think of a number of people who have contributed over the past year. A
lot of them were just persistent. Ruben still did all the real work (ie not
everybody mind you, some I think did some work) so to say you can't make a
difference is ridicules. I believe Ruben's on IRC all the time
That's what it says here.
We will publish point releases every 6 months including all improvements
done to the system in that time.
It just shows there is no clear leadership or direction for this project.
People want updated ISOs because it contains newer kernels and the current
ISO is over a year old. Their requests get ignored, the 6.01 ISO is stuck in
testing limbo, and who knows if it is ever made official down the
It just shows there is no clear leadership or direction for this project.
Becuase of the when it's ready policy? Please note that the Debian Project
has the same policy. If you wish to criticize Trisquel for a lack of an exact
date it seems you must also criticize the Debian Project as well.
Ruben makes the final decisons on things no matter how much you contribute.
You could spend all that work patching something and there is NO guarantee in
if he will put it in there or not. Heck, most of us don't know where he is
most of the time. There's also people who aren't as technical

Yes, and many projects use the benevolent dictator model so that's
completely irrelevant. My point,
I've tried to contribute through the issue tracker, but am being ignored. I
didn't know about trisquel-devel. Is that the proper place to contribute?
Thanks for reporting bugs helping to make Trisquel better. If you were to
make a helper to modify, say, vpb-driver-source it would probably be best to
submit that there.
The problem is that contributors aren't being compensated financially for
their work and Ruben probably will not share that with anyone even if they
handle a huge chunk of his work.
The benevolent dictator model is hurting the free software ecosystem in
general because it causes others who
Don't know why the dns problem should become any better just because it's not
inherited from ubuntu.
The problem with saying Trisquel is a one-man show is that there are other
people involved. Frequently indirectly. Trisquel takes the work of Canonical
and fixes it essentially. Then there is Jason who maintains a wonderful
repository. While outside of the distribution it enables people to

You say a community user is often told to fix it himself. Sounds like you
have experienced this yourself here? If so, what is the background. I haven't
noticed such treatment around here.
Also, what is with the urgency of your needing an ASAP new release of
Trisquel as if something
Yeah it's a bit like with ubuntu.
The community should please contribute but all decisions are made by one
person.
The 6.0.1 iso still isn't the one on the download page, and last time I
checked, it still didn't contain the saucy lts enablement stack.
One problem I have with contributing is that very few people look at the
issue tracker and try to fix anything (except for Spammers be gone). This
makes
The 6.0.1 iso still isn't the one on the download page because it's not
released yet.
Did I say it was? No. It's good to be clear on where problems come from and
not mis-attribute them. Not saying you did but this commonly comes up in
discussions about Trisquel being based on Ubuntu.
Is there any estimated release date? Updated isos are supposed to be released
every 6 months, and it's been over a year now.
It was a mistake. These things happen.
Updated isos are supposed to be released every 6 months
I'm not sure where that came from. AFAIK, Trisquel has no specific release
date, instread doing it when it's ready. Seems like a good date for 6.0.1
as well as 7.
I know the topic is closed, but i want to come back at this issue. r Stallman

As quidam commented there, it was a mistake that's been fixed.
To get rid of the google dns, edit these files as super user and remove the

Isn't the new 6.01 ISO supposed to fix this in addition to having the Saucy
kernel and Xserver updates.
We are getting to a point where an official release needs to happen ASAP as
the current ISO is over a year old at this point.
I know it was a mistake, but it's one of a few really serious ones... google
dns, running ssh etc.
I think one active developer is just not enough for maintaining a secure
system.
It sure helps although more developers usually mean a finer division of the
work and not people checking each other's works. E.g., Debian, the largest
free software project, had a critical bug in OpenSSL for two years:
Yes, exactly, so let's stop the FUD please. The Google DNS thing, for
example, wasn't even inherited from Ubuntu. It had nothing to do with
Trisquel being based on Ubuntu, has been fixed, and now it's time to move on.
I really don't want this to turn into another thread of people trying to

No upgrade ever changes config settings; that would be a terrible behavior of

Yes, exactly.
Many free software projects that are one developer don't thrive. Especially
when the developer has a full time job and the project is secondary.
The most successful free software/open source projects are backed by a
commercial entity or are established enough to make their money as part of a
