Or: "Binary packages are usually available within a week after..." :-)

Yes, unless we only does this for our own ego! ;-)

It's quite obvious that the point above can be stronger and clearer in
some way..

.. and.. I have some additional thoughts about this: I don't feel annoyed
about private e-mails and bashing on the list. Both the binaries and the
installers are downloaded and in use by _many_ thousand users. It's not
much noise related to that.

Yes, most us don't get paid for this, but that don't make us martyrs,
IMHO. We are all doing some high and semi high profiled work/playing
here, so some "annoying" emails in places we don't like should just
teach us that we must do some small things a little bit diffrent.
