Call me cynical, but handling problems and improvement requests by "resolving" them only to be in some future release is pretty much pointless to me.

On my Debian desktop system I can do apt-get update; apt-get upgrade every day, if I want, and get fixes for reported bugs per-package. Not by going from one release to another. I can decide to hold on to what I have for some packages if I want, and upgrade others.

Now _that's_ how I want bugs and improvements to be handled. What does it help me today to see a problem as 'resolved' in bugzilla if it's only to be released in fremantle, a release which doesn't even exist at this point? A release that will probably not even run on my hardware.

As I said, call me cynical. But the way it's now isn't very interesting. 3party developers, though, they are doing things the Right Way: maemo mapper, omweather, vagalume.. they are all upgraded, for existing platforms, as bugs are fixed and features are added.

Now back to fixing problems reported by my own customers.
