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.
I an a retired software enthusiast. I enjoy operating systems and user interfaces. These are some things I did before I retired: compile kernels, though I have not modified one. I would often test systems, especially their installation, configuration, and initial usage. My goals were to help systems to become easier to install and use every day.
