Distro: antiX-23-beta1-runit_x64-full Grup Yorum 21 March 2023

 I've been testing the upcoming antiX 23 release for a few months.

Typically this distribution puts out a new release when there is a Debian release - definitely when there is a major Debian release change, for example from Bullseye (Release 11) to Bookworm (Release 12).

While the upcoming Debian release effort is going well, in typical Debian style, though they have a release planned, and it's been on their calendar for at least a year, the last I looked, they STILL did not provide a projected final release date, so I'm not 100% certain if the antiX 23 release will WAIT for Debian's eventual release, or if it'll release as the functionality freeze sufficiently stabilizes the software enough to make it practical for antiX to finalize their own release, with or without a final Bookworm release date.  Time will tell.  There are still minor issues to work out in both releases; I'm not sure if any of them are considered release blockers for either release or not.  If I see anything definitive about those matters, I may get an opportunity to write about it and check into it.
