Reply to author | Forward | Print | Individual message | Show original | Report this message | Find messages by this author
In the Mar 94 Issue of the Linux Journal, there was an article on the
Debian Distribution which indicated the official release would take place
the beginning of March, 1994.  I'm sure this has been delayed in order
to include both version 1.0 of the kernel and XFree 2.1, plus probably
a lot of other stuff as well.  Can anyone say when they think the
official release will take place?

The release was essentially waiting for Linux 1.0.  (I can just hear
the BETA testers thinking, ``yeah, right!''  I'm full of excuses. :)

The next release of Debian (version 0.92) will almost certainly be
announced to c.o.l.a., so I suppose that you could call it an
``official'' release.  Then again, Debian has been FTPable to the
general public since the end of January; would that constitute an
``official'' release?  Probably not.  But the version of Debian that
will be announced is still BETA... ah, never mind. :)

Any word on when the CD will be out (one the Debian group approves)?
Will it still be available from the FSF, with the Debian group
supplying disk/tape versions?

Also, does Debian have a fancy color menu-driven installation program
like Slackware 1.1.2?
