Is there a release schedule?

I'm very interested in teTeX on cygwin, because MikTeX creates realy
ugly pdf-files.

Thank you for your answer.

After removing the old tetex-beta, I've installed all the stuff there:
- tetex-beta
- texmf-base
- texmf-extra

The good message:
The fmt-Files are now there and will be found.

But, if I call pdflatex I got the following error message:

Error: pdflatex (file pdftex.cfg): cannot open config file

This file was initially not in the texmf-tree. So I copy it from
the last teTeX-texmf-1.0 release.

After 

texconfig confall
texconfig rehash
texconfig init

this file is also in 

/usr/share/texmf/ls-R 

but pdflatex can't find it anyway.

So I try to use pure latex.

This is the error message I got:

! LaTeX Error: File `article.cls' not found.

Seems that something principally is broken. Some ideas where I have to dig?

Regards
Ralf
