The Myth of the Bad Ubuntu Release
,----[ Quote ]
| OK, so there's something that always
| disturbs me when release time comes around.
| Here's a rough chronology of every Ubuntu
| release (at least since I've been involved,
| so that goes back to Breezy Badger) and what
| the "buzz" around the internet says:
|
| 1. Alphas come out: buzz says, "not much
| to see here folks, move along."
| 2. Beta comes out: buzz says, "wow, great
| release, but where's the new artwork?"
| and I'm thinking "How on earth can the
| pull this off?"
| 3. RC rolls around: buzz says, "new
| awesomeness right around the corner!" and
| I'm thinking "darn it, there's a lot more
| to do."
| 4. Release day: buzz says, "OMG I have to
| download this" and I'm thinking "phew,
| that's over, I'm glad I rsync'd/zsync'd
| yesterday"
| 5. The week after a release: buzz says,
| "Noooooo, this is the worst Ubuntu
| release EVER!" and I'm thinking "wow,
| they really did pull it off"
| 6. Rinse and Repeat
