My fluids are building up to bursting. Hmm, so much for their
predictable release schedule.

Actually, from my point of view, I would have liked to see them release
it on time. They could always make the next release the supported release.

I'm given to understand in Breezy Badger, a recently-released version of
Gnome was bunged in at the last moment. I disagree with this decision on
2 grounds:
1. the developers had to work a lot of overtime to get it in, which is
kinda unfair on the developers
2. cramming stuff in at the last moment is a recipe for disaster.

Given the frequency of their releases, there is no real need for them to
rush anything.

Probably 2 releases a year is too much, anyway. It makes it more
difficult to achieve complicated enhancements.

Still, what would I know, I'm not a multi-millionare like Mr
Shuttleworth :(
