Debian becoming loony again

As every time a release is approaching, Debian is turning into a loony. There must be some combination of stress, accumulated tensions between people, whatever, but the net result is that Debian turns crazy and tries all its best not to release.

So, instead of trying to fix some of the symptoms by implementing crazy stuff such as pseudo moderated mailing lists or code of conducts, let's just fix the root cause: have Debian never release again.

    I remember around 3 or 4 years ago when rthis happened, I switched to FreeBSD. Looks like I’ll be switching again…

    well, if you define “user” as only the people who run sid, you’re right. i can’t say I shared this definition in those 13 years I’ve been using Debian.

    I don’t care, I still love it.

    Another bonehead.

    As a developer myself, I want reliability and stability. Also, it is crunch time. Obviously, you have no clue what that is or means.

    Install Ubuntu or Mint. They’re cute.

    I do agree with Sam, I still love it. Debian is so great that a minor delay is not a problem. Debian is ready when it’s ready. And Debian is so great, among other things, thanks to the work of people like you!

    Thanks to all the Debian community!!
