...that features the new 2.0 kernel?

Isn't that one of the signs of the Apocalypse?

five oh three
we've seen thee a lot two odd numbers sandwiching naught

seeing a good olde friend
such a grand time
a prime, a zero, another prime

we hope slashdot
doesn't fix their site
so we may enjoy you every night

Okay, this is a Debian thread, you all know the drill. Everybody who wants to make a crack about Debian packages being at least twenty years old by the time they are released form a line to the right.

Zealotous supporters of other Linux distributions over by the wall. If you have no clue how apt works but still want to say that rpm/emerge/tar is far superior, just raise your hand when we call on you.

If you think you're being pretty darn rebelious by railing against the use of "GNU/Linux", then stand over by the wading pool. We'll get to you once the grown-ups have had their say.

BSD supporters can congregate near the exit. We've heard some rumours about you and I want to make sure you have a clear path to the ambulance in case anything happens.

Everyone who thinks Yggdrasil is the one and only true distribution, there's a special thread for you over in the cafeteria.

At least this is Offtopic. That's better than 503 == No topic.

Did they specify the year?

There are ony SOO many toy story characters, after this there going to have to start naming them after the etch-a-sketch, piggy bank, etc. on the other hand.. there have been 2 sequals since woody was released.

Doom III released... Check

Sarge released... Check

Slashdot works better with Internet Explorer than with Firefox... Check

Walls bleeding...Check.

Yup, it's the End Times.

Yup, it's the End Times.

*bzzt* Sorry, you're wrong, thanks for playing. You forgot the perennial favorite:

Duke Nukem Forever... Who the hell knows.

Close, but not yet. Duke Nukem Forever has not been released, yet. So, we're safe for now. ;)

You can both stand wherever you want.

>> And to top off including 13,000+ packages,
>>they've even beaten the release times between
>> Microsoft's barebones desktop OSes Windows XP and
>> Longhorn

To be fair, you should mention that 1000 of those packages are Tetris clones or various marble games. :P

I've managed to screw my system up with Stable too, but I don't think you can infer anything from that.

Well, you can, but I ignore it.

Firefox keeps a name for half a year... Check.

Debian Release will include a copy of Duke Nukem Forever, it is the true reason for the delay

To recap its stable then testing and finally unstable.

I think they could solve their name problems if they would rename everything like this:

Stable => Debian Server
Testing => Debian Desktop
Unstable => Debian Windows

Each name clearly denoting the level of stability for that branch.

(Let the flame wars begin ;-))

You'd think people would not overlook specifics such as this, that are so important to Debian release dates.
