Lenny release?


I don't want to jump the gun...

but when is Lenny going to be released?

I'm really hoping that lenny will fix some software conflicts I'm having (mostly with truecrypt).

The stated goal is Fall of 2008, but why wait? Lenny is quite stable now from everything I see, read, and experience on my own Lenny systems. Unless you are managing a large group of desktops, Debian Testing is generally more appropriate for day to day use than the Stable release. Occasional problems may arise, but it appears you have that already.

Thanks guys and gals. I know it will only be released when it is solid. I'm just eager...

I thought about going to testing... perhaps I'll give it a try.
