We don't wait for "releases" before getting new "features". This release appears to be mainly an update to the installer, the addition of more device drivers to the install CD, and a (relatively) fresh set of binary packages so users wanting to stay with stable will not have to update and recompile a bunch of stuff right off the bat. That is just based on what the devs said they were going to do, and what a release typically means for Gentoo. You can check the official project page for current status and goals of the release: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/release/2006.1/2006.1.xml -Richard --=20 gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
