Re: Debian to be too late released

["Martin Waller" <polytope_@hotmail.com>]

Yes - I'm trying to persuade some people here at my work place to switch to 
Debian from RedHat as they 'discover' linux, but they're put off by the lack 
of a stable 2.2.x debian release, especially as they want to do some SMP 
work.  OK - upgrade slink to 2.2.x, but then there's more faffing about 
getting dchcpcd to work properly again so that these can sit happily on our 
MS driven network.

Let alone 2.4.x...
