Re: [gNewSense-users] question about release schedule and Intrepid Ibex

[Mike Steiner]

Okay, let me clarify what I meant:

Most of us (including me) know that major gNewSense releases follow
Ubuntu LTS releases. For example, gNewSense 2.0 was based on Hardy
Heron and was released on May 1st.

However, looking at http://cdimage.gnewsense.org/, there appears to be
a 2.1 version. How could this be? There was no LTS release since Hardy
Heron, and no non-LTS release either. 2.1 must have been released for
some other mysterious reason. Perhaps it was to add some important
change, or just a bunch of security updates. It isn't obvious to me
why there is a 2.1 version, and since a non-LTS Ubuntu release is
coming up, it would seem logical to assume there might be a minor
gNewSense release soon after that. So that's why I asked my question
about if there would be a MINOR version released after Intrepid Ibex.

I hope this makes my question clearer.
