Since creating the tarballs from the git tree is a simple script that takes about 3 minutes, there is no reason not to provide the snapshots. I think that a monthly updates summary of bugs fixed, milestones reached would serve the project well. I can't emphasize enough how well Arch Linux does this directly from the git repository they use. If you haven't done so, then check out the way Arch integrates its git project into its main page to keep everyone up to date on what has changed in the distribution. Just take this example: http://www.archlinux.org then in the upper right where the search box is for packages, just type in 'cups' or another package you are interested in. It jumps straight to the package summary with links in the top right for source/changes, etc.. that links directly to the git repo. I'm not pushing Arch, but I am pushing how they have done their site, their publication of updates, and their wiki -- it is the smartest setup I've seen and I've looked at a lot.... The cleaner R14 is -- the easier to manage afterwards it will be. I think it is on the right track and I think you have some good ideas. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
