You know it and I know it. prior to which release? to test1? I know no such thing... in fact the oo.org 1.x versus 2.x pep-rally is still raging. I'd imagine if we applied nominal effort we can hijack that thread and grind that discussion to a halt while we debate the finer points as to which day in the development cycle stablization should turn a corner. Hell.. i even expect to see some major shifts in tree content post-test1. If there are some very very dubious breakages in test1 that have no resolutions on the time scale of full release i fully expect to see some downgrades happening in test2. And packages downgrades are always fun in rawhide.. since there has never been any promise to make rawhide monotonically updatable via the use of epochs. -jef
