Guest Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 "Generally the development cycle goes like this: 1) Free for all... developers upgrade packages to put new versions in, bug fixes, whatever needs to be done or is desierable to be done. 2) Soft Freeze, No new versions of software are to be done. Only bug fixes. If a new version is needed to get a bug fix (it can't be patched) then it will be put in. Generally one or 2 betas goes out before this happens. 3) Hard Freeze, Only critical bug fixes will be applied. Smaller bugs generally aren't patched. This tends to happen around the release canidate stage. 4) Release Betas, Release Canidates, and the final releases are just snapshots of where cooker stood at a particular time. When the snapshot occurs is a decision that Mandrake makes behind the sense. So you're basically right about how it goes. Ben Reser" Quoted from the Cooker Mailing List Bluebeard.
