Re: Chosing release goals for slink

I think this idea, as presented here, is very bad.  Even with sanity
checks and more thought, I'm not impressed by the idea and don't think
it would be worth the effort to implement.  We now have people helping
Guy, and the ftp site should be much less of a problem than it has
been recently.

Eh?  That sounds suspiciously like meaningless buzz-word talk.  What's
``autocompilation support'' please?

That we release slink before 2038 or so?  These goals (the desirable
ones, that is) aren't viable if we want slink to not be the disaster
hamm is.
