As people have pointed out, it takes a while to distribute CD's, as it stands, if 3.2 was to be released on May 1st, it would give 3.1-RELEASE a useable life of about 6 weeks[1] before 3.2-RELEASE was `created`. I'm not saying that we should hold off on 3.2 just because 3.1 is still new, but I feel there must be a compelling reason (major security fix, important new features etc.) to release it so soon after people get their 3.1 CD's. [1] For those of us outside USA. My CD only arrived on 13/3/99 Rich -- rich@dynamite.org If that's what they call normal, I'd rather be insane.
