Re: Edu wheezy release in (or before) August or September or...?!!?



Hi,

for the first beta I'd like to upload today / within the next 2h d-e-install, 
d-e-config and d-e-artwork as they are in svn now. Then, move those packages 
from wheezy-test to wheezy tomorrow, assuming someone has tested the wheezy-
test isos. And then release our first beta release on Tuesday.

btw, shall we really abbreviate beta 1 as "b0"? As much as I like starting to 
count with 0, it is confusing in press releases etc...

btw2, source images are ready to be included in the beta release as well?

formalizing the workflow a bit seems like a very good idea to me! Thanks for 
bringing this up.

I dont see how this is relevant and I also think a week long/short workflow is 
better...

sounds reasonable to me.

If needed, I can also handle the uploads, though I have to admit I'm not that 
good at unfuzzy trivial strings...
