Thanks, excellent news! Debian only issues a new release when it's ready, which makes more sense than a fixed release schedule as other distros have.

To me that makes more sense than that of Fedora or OpenSuse for example.

Yes, I agree. There is an opposite extreme though - a distro like Slackware where you never know when the next release is going to come out, or even if it will at all. It's good to have a vague idea of when the next one is due (I think Debian gets it about right).

Yes Slackware 15 took several years to be released IIRC. Debian's philosophy of releasing when ready is very sensible considering it's a very actively developed distro.

Has this changed? I didn't see any changes when I checked.
