In general, this is almost (but not exactly) equivalent to a rolling release model (with a snapshot once in a while). I am all for it, however, note that troubles with the installer were picked up only (and could not be otherwise, since this only happens when installing) when the distribution was released. I would suggest the beta be announced along with more emphasis on catastrophic new changes: the change to anaconda and the installer was announced for sure, but it would have been really worthwhile to have stressed that the old way of maintaining partitions while installing was not going to work or perhaps considered in development (this would have resulted in more people testing the specific aspect of the install). I however, personally strongly favor the rolling release model, with periodic snapshots. Ranjan -- Important Notice: This mailbox is ignored: e-mails are set to be deleted on receipt.
