That's not a flamebait, it's a proposal: instead of deciding a precise release
date, at least decide a deadline for the freeze. Then, you take the time it
takes to solve the rc-bugs. Or, you chose to freeze when you have the right
kernel, the right toolchain. Not because someone said 2 years ago that December
6th would be the right time.

So you didn't even read my message.
I don't want a timely release, I want a release when it's ready, because it's
the only way to achieve quality and freedom: for example, we're still stuck with
these non-free firmwares, and many bugs are tagged as etch-ignore, because of
this deadline.

So you're asking someone to join the Debian team while the recent event made
some developpers quit the project, and others slow down their work? Maybe it's
time to start asking yourself what's wrong, uh?
