If you think it is community based distro, and you want more frequent stable releases (say, one release per year, i.e. every December before the Christmas holidays ;-) then you might want to help to keep testing (resp. unstable) as close as possible to a reasonable releaseable state. This means sending decent bugreports, patches, etc. ... that should be community-made I belive, and not just shouting out 'oh, can't wait, your old software doesn't not support my new hardware'. > was Debian and maybe it still is but I guess I need to ask myself: What is > the best community distro based on free software that isn't so free that it > doesn't work. I guess that right now is Ubuntu. Will you approach ubuntu's mailing lists the same way when next Debian Stable got released with much more current software than the latest Ubuntu Stable release ? -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 <people.fccf.net/danchev/key pgp.mit.edu> fingerprint 1AE7 7C66 0A26 5BFF DF22 5D55 1C57 0C89 0E4B D0AB -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
