From: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@eklektix.com> Subject: 2.2.0 press release? Date: Wed, 13 Jan 1999 16:15:38 -0700 To: linux-kernel@vger.rutgers.edu Previous stable kernel releases have seen a press release drafted on this list. I've not seen any such effort this time around, and I've actually *read* most of the flood that has poured through here recently. The mainstream media has already made it clear that they're interested in covering this kernel release. Having a reasonably written press release for them to read would likely improve the quality of that reporting considerably. Is anybody working on such a thing? Of course, having raised the issue, I should now step forward to try to address it :-). I am actually willing to give it a shot, but there's no way I can make a start on it until next week. Depending on how quickly Linus wants to move, that could be pushing the timing pretty hard. Thoughts? jon Jonathan Corbet, Eklektix, Inc. corbet@eklektix.com
