Hi,
the just released rh70 beta contains a gcc-2.96 snapshot as the main
compiler it seems. Since gcc-2.96/gcc-3.0 is nowhere near a release AFAIK,
I would like to know if it makes sense to drop the planned (?) gcc-2.95.3
in favor of a gcc-2.96 release with the libstdc++-v3 and new-abi stuff
still disabled? AFA I can tell, this should be possible with a relatively
short stabilization phase...
I for myself think this makes sense, cause as soon as rh70 is out, there
will probably more bug reports against the snapshot that RH uses than for
gcc-2.95.x simply due the large userbase of RH.
Franz.
