    That is normal in software development. System76 thinks that they will reach v1.0 early next year, but in reality, this won’t mature for another 2 years or so.

      At their self-imposed rates of 1 new Alpha at the last Thursday of every month, and assuming only 2 Betas, and assuming they can get Alpha 5 done in December, we’re looking at the end of April for release, though I’d realistically expect Epoch 1 at the end of June or July, or maybe even after that.

      This is normal in Software Development.

      I know. I’m a CS student, but they are still in a pretty early stage of their project and don’t have anywhere near the technical debt or size of projects like Plasma or GNOME, and as such, I think they should still be able to keep on going at a pretty fast pace.
