I thought there was a huge announcement that, as of Mint 12, Mint is

now based directly on Debian instead of on Ubuntu.  Hence why I said

Mint changed from being an Ubuntu child to being an Ubuntu sibling.

I know that Mint is on a 6 month release cycle, I thought it was

April/October as the release months.  I stand corrected on when Mint

actually comes out.
