-While no release date or content promises are made we are hoping to release
-the remainder of the 1.9 series relases within short time frame.

 
 

-Should a budding contributor spring into gear and deliver any of the above
-ahead of the above release sequence then we reserve the option to make an
-out of sequence release (but always keeping to a logical sequence code number).
+Note that it is a given that the Samba-Team will continue to track
+Windows (NT/200x) update releases, ensuring that Samba will work
+well with whatever "Beta" releases Redmond throws our way :-).

 
 

+You may also note that the release numbers get fuzzier the
+further into the future the objectives get. This is intentional
+as we cannot yet commit to exact timeframes.
