Sarge is Now Frozen

JoeBuck writes "Steve Langasek has announced that Debian Sarge is now frozen. He produced a schedule that would lead to a Debian release at the end of May, though I would expect it to slip somewhat. I'm glad that the long wait for a Debian release will soon be over."

    GREAT! now i can have sheer joy (read:agony) of installing/upgrading debian with that masterpiece of code called JIGDO!....no, but seriously, that shitpile of an installer (am i being too generous?) can make some of the best users swear by Windows!

  3. Re:Sarge's March Forward by northcat · · Score: 0, Troll

    Are you insinuating that "Desktop" users are stupid cunts who can't even use the same installer as Ubuntu with just a few more added questions? And are you suggesting that instead of making "stupid" users "smart" by giving them appropriate help and documentation, people should just give in to the "stupidity" and dumb down everything? Most of all, are you saying that how fast one such alleged "idiot" can learn to install a distro determines whether the distro is suitable for "desktop" use, even among "non-idiots"? And by the appearace of your post, are you telling us that you are among the said group of idiots who're going to use something on their "desktop" because of the reasons stated above?

    At least cd burning in 2.2 actually works. Bluddy linus being arrogant and dictatorial, and bluddy schillig being so obstinate.
