CrunchBang Linux
The main focus behind this release was to incorporate the 5 months worth of package updates that have occurred since the previous Statler alpha 2 images were created. Changes to the application line-up and system defaults have been kept to a minimum. The only changes of note are:
The artwork has been updated to reflect the recent website redesign.
The Xfce variant now uses Xfce’s native panel by default. tint2 remains installed.
The Openbox variant has had Orage replaced by gsimplecal.
The Openbox variant now features johnraff’s “places” and “recent files” pipe menus.
Any existing Statler users should not need to perform a reinstall, instead a simple ‘sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade’ should suffice.
Regarding the “20101205″ thing, this release and any future Statler releases will now feature a date based revision identifier. There will not be any more “alpha” images and you should not expect to see any “beta”, “RC” or “final” images either. From this point on, if anyone needs to make a judgment as to the stability of Statler, they should check the date based identifier against the progress of Debian Squeeze.
As always with CrunchBang, this release is not recommended for anyone who requires a stable system. Anyone who uses CrunchBang should be comfortable with occasional or even frequent breakage. Remember, CrunchBang Linux could make your computer go CRUNCH! BANG!

HOW unstable can I expect the Openbox version to be? How unstable compared to Ubuntu 10.04 / 10.10 ?
Ubuntu hardly never crashes for me, but there is some irritating overhead that I suppose will be avoided by using #! and Openbox…
