Qubes 4 - Walk The Talk

[Sudoyum]

First of all I would like to congratulate the Qubes team and their very pro-active User community on creating their highly regarded Qubes OS.

As an IT professional working for a large multi-national, I have been following, closely, the development of Qubes for some time, with the ultimate intent of perhaps rolling out Qubes on an experimental basis within our IT Department.

As you'd expect, when we consider entering into a partnering relationships, our primary considerations after costs are reliability and integrity - it is imperative that all our partners "walk the talk". In other words, if new software is planned to be released on a forthcoming date, that date must be met. If problems exist they need to be discussed in an open and honest way and if necessary revised dates agreed.

I hope this short note explains what most professional Clients demand of their Suppliers.

Keep up the good work and do your best to give us a reliable release date for Qubes 4.

Kind Regards

I always thought large businesses were always leary about wanting newly released versions of software to fix what isn't broke. Unless they is a specific feature they are waiting for they usually stick with older versions they know are stable. For example most businesses still use windows 7. Debian stable goes a long time before a major release.

Its usually the home user that always wants the latest versions of software for no particular reason.
