“In this very moment, during the ongoing annual Debian Developer
Conference “Debconf10” in New York, Debian’s release managers have
announced a major step in the development cycle of the upcoming
stable release Debian 6.0 Squeeze:

“Debian Squeeze has now been frozen.

“In consequence this means that no more new features will be
added and all work will now be concentrated on polishing Debian
Squeeze to achieve the quality Debian stable releases are known
for.

“The upcoming release will use Linux 2.6.32 as its default
kernel in the installer and on all Linux architectures.”
