Is that end of the month 2008 or 2009 ?

Especially Debian.

Place your bets #

I say early November.

THIS year.

Why worry? #

I don't care when it comes out as long as it's good.

Debian - good things come to those who wait...

Using Lenny at the moment #

It's fantastic already - a few minor bugs (nmbd doesn't like starting on boot, but starts fine afterwards) but it's a big improvement over Etch.

Lets hope that pushing back the release means we get Lenny-and-a-half from the moment Lenny was supposed to hit stable.

so what? #

Premature OS releases usually are embarrassments for the groups that release them. Remember Vista? It isn't just MS. I actually tried OpenSUSE/KDE4 just after it escaped. Luckily, a guest VM is easy to blow away.

Props to the Debian dev team for having sense enough to wait until they get it right.
