Just my opinion, but I think that is too aggressive of a timeline. I
realize that the proposed 6.5 actually *builds*, but has anyone actually
tried using it, in real-life situations?

I don't think two weeks is enough time for anyone to build a functional
desktop and/or server system and actually test it out, especially with
BLFS lagging so badly. Half the BLFS instructions probably don't work
with LFS-6.5, which makes the building process of an actual functional
machine even harder and longer.

Just my thoughts.
