You all have it really wrong. A distribution DOES NOT release a version
when they decide to. It is when it's ready. YOU WILL release crappy and
buggy software if you push something for a date and note for when
something is ready. Ubuntu is good and should be released when it's
ready. Not on a stupid date.

Additionally, WPA is WHAT? 3 Years old? 4 Maybe? I know the feature is
new in NM but is a feature the OS has to have
so-it-won't-be-considered-primitive. I don't care if other Distros have
it or not. If the people want the feature, then it should be included.
This is a distro for the "humans" isn't it?
