Indeed, there have been many "real soon now" pre-release messages at
regular intervals for the last +3 years.


Compare this to Linus' announcement for the just released 2.6.21 kernel:

+ So it's been over two and a half months, and while it's certainly not the
+ longest release cycle ever, it still dragged out a bit longer than I'd
+ have hoped for and it should have. As usual, I'd like to thank Adrian (and
+ the people who jumped on the entries Adrian had) for keeping everybody on
+ their toes with the regression list - there's a few entries there still,
+ but it got to the point where we didn't even know if they were real
+ regressions, and delaying things further just wasn't going to help.

With a similar release procedure for Emacs, Emacs 22.1 had been
released in 2004, and 23.4 would be ready for release next month.
