Why 7.0 is so late ?

[Albert Shih]

Hi all


Anyone known why this time the release of 7.0 is so late ? In generaly the
date on http://www.freebsd.org/releng/index.html is alway very optimist. 

But this time it's almost 5 mounth (annonced june 2007). 

I've see somewhere it's because 7.0 come with gcc 4.2 and many ports don't
compile. Is this the reason ?

Regards.
