Debian Sarge Coming Soon

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the believe-it-when-you-see-it dept.

daria42 writes "The long awaited 3.1 release of the Debian GNU/Linux distribution - codenamed Sarge - is due out next week on the 6th of June, according to the project's release team. Around 50 release-critical bugs remain to be fixed. One more update to Debian 3.0 will also be released prior to that date. And it's about time - the last formal release was back in July 2002. Debian 3.0 will probably be supported with security patches for another 12 months."

    TeX really does have a release schedule like that. The last major release was v3. That was followed by release 3.1, then 3.14, then 3.141.

    The most recent version is 3.14159, as the release numbers are slowly asymptoting toward pi.
