I just want PR1.2 to be released so I can stop checking into talk.maemo.org.

People seem to have stopped developing themes for the N900. All new apps are geared towards PR1.2, and IF they are backwards compatible, they require full updates to the libraries. The whole system is a mess.

Just release the damn thing. Short of user data loss, any future bug can be fixed with small patches rather than this huge update that's taking forever to debug.

Unless this "catastrophic bug" that may or may not exist is tied to locale, I don't think there can be one. They are installing PR1.2 on phones now (it seems) for the Hong Kong release this weekend. This is a purely political/business delay to try to show "new features" (in Maemo-speak this seems to be bug fixes) in Hong Kong.

RELEASE IT ALREADY. And PLEASE dump the giant firmware updates. Just do smaller weekly drops or individual package updates as appropriate for bug fixes. Hopefully these practices aren't some the Maemo that is working its way into Meego.

Am I missing why some IT consultant in the UK would have the inside scoop on this? Who's Andrew?
