And breaking other's repos is any better?

Where did I say that? I still think that given the BS turnaround times
it would be better to have a testbed repo where things can be dropped
in to be tested.

I fully agree with you that such changes should be well tested before
being allowed into an official repo.

I haven't followed the full issue here, but I hope / assume that there
will be a Tumbleweed testing repo before this is process is fully
baked.

No, no, no. Please keep this process simple. All of us are willing to
drive Tumbleweed _while_ we need to kept focused.

At the time we created network:samba:STABLE and TESTING we had a long
discussion regarding if we need network:samba:3_2, n:s:3_3, n:s:3_4 and
so on. And I always argued: keep it simple. Less repositories are
better and focus the testing. Using an additional repositories from the
openSUSE Build Service (OBS) is already hard enough for the majority of
our users.

Short messager: less repositories are better.

I agree. And in this vein, I've linked from network:samba:STABLE into
openSUSE:Tumbleweed now, and the packages are working great, thanks.

I'm building some semi-automated tools to monitor changes in "parent"
repos so I should catch it if you update the packages in this repo, but
if I miss them, and you want me to update them, just let me know.

thanks,

greg k-h
