Well, I had been expecting XFree 4.0 in July, so this is good news :)
from reading their web page, it looks like 3.3.6 will come out just
after the freeze or release. 4.0 is still a ways off... As for the
kernel, I didn't think 2.3 was really frozen (I could have missed
something!).

I'd really like to see shorter cycles, If only to get a better code
name than "woody" quickly. ;-) I wonder how many people running for
Project Leader are going to bring the release-cycle issue up...
