The terms `-stable' and `-current' are simply definitions. (Most likely, -current will always remain on the HEAD revision, CVS-wise.) Yes, -stable is supposed to be switched to the 2.2 branch some day (maybe that -current will become 2.3 then). -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
