After all, the aforementioned distros are piss poor. I'll admit that switching to debian was the best chioice i ever made. I started using slack in '93, then went to caldera, piddled around with redhat/mandrake, then corel (cuz it was a debian based distro), then finally to potato. > HURRY UP! i know you dont release anything but quality, but this is > getting way out of hand. Debian is a volunteer-run project. If you are not happy with the rate at which releases occur, you are welcome to contribute to the freeze effort. If your contributions are likely to include posting to developer mailing lists, however, I strongly suggest you learn to use a mail client that supports proper word wrapping. Using lines longer than 80 characters in email is distracting and is likely to get you ignored by many developers. Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
