Actually, I've been curious about the whole kernel 2.4 and woody
releases. Anyone know what the plans are for an upcoming woody
release? Will it (from Debian or Storm) utilize kernel 2.4 (which is
to be officially released sometime this month)? And what is the
timeline?
I'm simply curious about the possibility of, perhaps, a completely
new generation of Linux. It seems that some definite progress is
being made and I'm anticipating an even more powerful and user-
friendly linux distro in the near future.
Anyone know what some of these plans/timelines may be?
Rumors are even appreciated.
Thanks!
