Re: [debian-knoppix] Next Knoppix: what's to be expected

[Nicholas Vettese <nvettese@pdistributors.com>]

There wasn't much info given to me, and I can not attest to the validity 
of this either.  All I know is the source was a very trusted source, and 
Klaus is apparently very tight lipped about the whole situation.  All I 
could gather was that the version is ready to go, but this magazine has 
first dibs.  I wish I knew if it were true or not, but I am excited.

I look at it like this.  If a magazine wants this realease, there must 
be some new stuff to talk about in the distro.  Hopefully the magazine 
will give a good review, and go in depth so people like us can 
understand the love we have for this distro.
