Ars Technica, a news site well known not only to Macintosh enthusiasts, discusses Ubuntu's time-centric release strategy:
<http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080521-why-linux-isnt-yet- ready-for-synchronized-release-cycles.html> I wonder why there is so much emhasis on releases at all. For me, releases are just a bundle of changes in fashion. Prefer Gnome 2.2 over Gnome 2.0, prefer ext3 over ext2 and so on. Nevertheless, any set of installed packages should work, dependencies take care of impossible combinations. MarKus - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dipl. Ing.
