   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. :)
