)is 6 months to a year away, how about making this a widely distributed beta
)release (like to everyone) that does something gross like write "beta
)release" in two inch high letters across the bootup screen, and accompany
)it with a note saying "we think this is going to break a lot of software;
)please try it and report problems that look like <description> to your
)third party software vendor and to <commodore contact>; THIS TEST RELEASE
)IS NOT KNOWN TO BE SAFE TO USE WHILE DOING OPERATIONS ON VALUABLE DATA,
)KEEP EXTRA FREQUENT BACKUPS; don't discard your 1.2 or 1.3 workbench disks
)yet."

Hell, I think we should put that notice on it when we ship final release.

)Just a stray thought.

PS: 6 months to a year?  That makes my stomach hurt.
