I am about to install linux on a computer, and I want to install debian. Right now I have two computers one running Ubuntu 12 and another running Debian 4 or something. I like Debian because I can download the DVD's of the software and take it home because I don't have internet at my house. I really want a stable debian release, but I even more want Linux Kernel 3.x. I am willing to wait a few weeks but not months/years. Can anyone give me a date for when Wheezy should be released?
No none can give you an exact date.
But you can watch the number of release critical (RC) bugs on this page:
http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/
Debian will be released when the
Number concerning the next release: 129
reaches zero.
Looking at the graph I guess this will happen in a few weeks.
You can also look in the details of RC-bugs
"Only bugs relevant to testing" (last link on the page)
http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/other/testing.html
and look if the affected packages or bugs are important for your
planned installation.
