R P Herrold reacted to mail that looked like totally unnecessary. I will
not get into his reaction, but I was confused why you sent that mail and
to whom was directed. I was not able to find a point that was not said,
and was wondering why you posted it, then I disregarded it and forgot
it. I guess Herrold misinterpreted your post for trying to stir trouble.
I was first to suggest that C6.1 **might** be released in **about** a
month from C6.0. Why? Because I suspect that since RHEL 6.1 srpms are
already published, devs could use free time, while waiting for QA team
to find bugs, to dry-run 6.1 srpms and see how many problems there are.
Any having fresh experience with 6.0, they do not need to try to
remember what was it that made a problem several months ago, in case of
version to version time span. I believe that devs are already working on
6.1, lightly but steadily.
Then everybody cough on that and started endless flame-war.
