The Project has also stated that they are subject to change without notice at any time prior to the official announcement. (The final build has to be marked -RELEASE and get pushed to the master website. If a problem is found with it, then it will get fixed and rebuilt with the same name).

There was a recent thread about installing kernel.debug to ensure that correct debugging symbols were available even if someone had rebuilt their kernel. I think it's an excellent idea to distribute kernel.debug because it should allow users to provide better quality problem reports. (Though I'm less certain about / being the best place to store the kernel.debug file). -- Peter JeremyReceived on Fri Nov 04 2005 - 18:33:52 UTC
