No Comments
Debian Release Manager, Richard Braakman, announced yesterday that the code freeze for Debian 2.2, code-named potato, had begun. The freeze process is expected to last approximately two months and a new unstable distribution, 'woody,' will be created as potato is prepped for release. Following the Debian announcement came word that FreeBSD 4.0 had also entered code freeze, expected to last 15 days. During the freeze, daily snapshots of FreeBSD 4.0 will be posted until it is deemed suitable for release.
