Other interpretations in the delay of Etch are likely

Although there is some evidence that work slowdowns may have been the cause of Etch's delayed release, I am not convinced. My understanding is that the biggest hurdles to the release were a buggy kernel (Debian's 2.6.18-3 kernel toasted many peoples filesystems!!!) and the corresponding delay in the Debian installer's release. I am not convinced that those individuals participating in the work slowdown were critical to the kernel fix-up.
