FC5 out in Feb 2006 - See you in Jan 2006 for FC6

[Captain Bubudiu]

Yep dudes according to
http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/schedule/ FC5 is
out in Feb 2006 preliminally.

However with my FC3 boxes working like clockwork i
will be knocking butts with most of you in Jan 2006
with the release of FC6. Fedora now has a healthier 9
month cycle.

Be aware that this is a one time thing (and subject to change).

Once we get a few more details nailed down, I'll send out an announcement.

Best,

Excelent! 9 months is much better!!!

[Rudolf Kastl]

better for what? ;))

I personally am a fan of fast release cycles. Sure for a production
box its different.. but then again no one forces an end user to
upgrade to every release.

If the cycles become too long its not good for having new core
components in (like python gnome etc etc etc).

If you think thats good or bad usually depends on the purpose... i am
more or less developer and i dont want to use/test/bugreport etc vs
old versions. If theres nothing planned in the next nine months that
would make a new distro release a requirement i am fine with it
however. ;)

regards,
Rudolf Kastl

p.s. i am using fedora cause its a bleeding edge distro ;)

It's not a nine-month cycle. There will be a longer time between
releases *this time only* in order to get some major buildsystem and
other infrastructure issues sorted out, which is not practical to do in
the 6-month cycle. After FC5, it's back to 6-month cycles. At least
that's my understanding.

Better for getting important development infrastructure in place for FC5.
