Two Major Debian Releases In One Day

Posted by kdawson on from the busy-busy dept.

AndyCater writes "If all goes according to plan, Debian should release both an update to Debian Sarge (3.1r6, henceforth to be oldstable) and a new stable release (Debian 4.0, which was codenamed Etch) — and announce the results of the election for Debian Project Leader — all within 12 hours. Sarge was updated late on April 7th UTC, Sam Hocevar was announced as DPL at about 00:30 UTC, and preparations for the release of Debian Etch are ongoing and look good for later on the 8th."

  1. Do you know who SAM Hocevar really is? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Troll

    Does it bother ANYBODY that Sam Hocevar is hosting shock websites that exploit vulnerabilities in web browsers?
