“I’ve had a couple of encounters with #! before,
starting with this review of version 9.04.01 and including this
review of version 10 “Statler” Openbox (Alpha 2). I was pleasantly
surprised by the features and minimalistic beauty of version
9.04.01, and I was later slightly let down by the relative lack of
polish and removal of some features in version 10 (Alpha 2). Now,
the #! developers have come out with a (actually, two) post-alpha
release(s) of version 10 “Statler”. The website says this:“Regarding the “20101205″ thing, this release and any
future Statler releases will now feature a date based revision
identifier. There will not be any more “alpha” images and you
should not expect to see any “beta”, “RC” or “final” images either.
From this point on, if anyone needs to make a judgment as to the
stability of Statler, they should check the date based identifier
against the progress of Debian Squeeze.”
