Linux setback
Gentoo Linux Cancels Distribution, Sean Michael Kerner, 09/26/08
Articls about Gentoo Linux canceling their distribution release for the year. In the past, Linux has released a new version almost every year. Donnie Berkholz, a Gentoo developer, stated that official releases in Gentoo generally only have ever had two purposes: to provide new hardware support for installation, and to create some buzz around the distribution.
"To make up for lack of buzz with less-frequent releases, we'll need to work harder to publicize the innovation happening in Gentoo on a daily basis."
