Bug#719888: developers-reference: Says next stable release will be called wheezy
Package: developers-reference
Version: 3.4.11
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainers,
In section 4.6.5, the document enumerates all the previous code names of Debian
up to squeeze and states that the next release will be called Wheezy.
A simple fix would be to add Wheezy to the list and say that the next release
will be Jessie.
However, this would add a bug to Jessie that would appear only as soon as Jessie
is stable.
I suggest to rephrase this paragraph so that it avoids this "fixed point"
problem. E.g.: "At the time this document is written, it is aimed to belong to
Debian jessie which will be numbered 8.0 when officially released."
