The problem is, -RELEASE is pushed out like a new release of a commercial OS, with big announcements, etc. etc., so people expect it to have been subject to a similar level of prerelease beta testing. Clearly this is not and cannot be the case, and IMHO therefore it should not be labeled -RELEASE, but -EARLYACCESS or similar. -- When asked if it is true that he uses his wheelchair as a weapon he will reply: "That's a malicious rumour.
