You miss the point. Debian 1.3 will be out in a month, like 1.2 was 
out in a "month". We saw how long that month was. CD's will be printed a 
"month" after that "month". The question is, do you really want to 
wait another "month"? Especially considering that 1.4 will follow soon 
after, and then 1.5, 2.0, 9.0, 35.6 etc, or do you want a CD *today*?

The fact that Kol Ze'ev still has 1.1 doesn't mean much. 1.1 is a fine 
buy for most users. There's not that many of us who really NEED the latest 
version, although many people on this list would feel deprived or 
worse without it. I am still selling Caldera Network Desktop (based 
in Red Hat 3.03).
