Comment 59 for bug 116870

Hi, having browsed through the Gutsy milestones the first entry entry that I found is for Ubuntu 7.10 Beta scheduled for release on the 27th of September. Just over two months away.

I'm curious as to why this is the case as,

a) an upstream fix has been released,
b) the bug has been rated as high in importance &
c) a number of applications have been affected.

Personally the three most commonly affected applications I use are Firefox, (hangs and crashes on occasion), Thunderbird, (virtually unusable) and Gnome Terminal, (no apparent affect).

Cheers.
