Literally, whenever it's convenient. When we're trying to push a new glibc into stable, which we have for two months now, we try to avoid CVS pulls. The upstream tree is _never_ stable, across all Debian architectures. Everyone using glibc appears to use the same pull/stabilize cycle. -- Daniel Jacobowitz MontaVista Software Debian GNU/Linux Developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
