The openSUSE 10.3 detailed roadmap made it clear that beta1 would
provide a "Feature and version freeze for the complete distribution
(exception: patchlevel update of leaf packages until Aug 17)" further
beta3 would provide that "only blocker and bug fixes [would be]
allowed" from then on. Yet the Factory News for 10.3 lists a number of
changes post beta3 that do not appear to comply with either of these
limitations.

You disagree with making exceptions and want openSUSE to follow a strict
rule written 6 months forehand without being flexible?

No, not necessarily, It would depend on the circumstances. For me it would
be a matter of balancing currency and stability. But change at the last
moment simply to include the very latest package and in the absence of any
other extenuating circumstances probably yes.

If I recall correctly you took over after the roadmap was released. Can I
ask you, did you agreed with its general intention?
Yes, I did. And every single package update was acknowledged by me.

Greetings, Stephan
