New Debian

Sun Apr 8 18:30:25 UTC 2007

Debian 4.0 (Etch) is released.  Yay!  It has been less than 2 years
since Sarge was released, which is actually pretty good for Debian.  And
only about 4 month after the intended release date.

It now has an optional graphical installer for people that think such
things are important.  It now uses a 2.6 kernel at all times, rather
than optionally.  Apache 2.2 (yay large file support), and lots of
other new goodies.  Also has amd64(x86_64) architecture officially
supported now, unlike the unofficial sarge port.

No wonder the Debian servers are slow today. :)
