Hi,
As mentioned in several situations, it's my declared goal to seperate Factory from openSUSE releases in people's mindset and run it as a rolling distribution with its own agenda.
So far Factory was meant purely as testbed for the next openSUSE release. But this has changed, and e.g. Factory releases DVDs whenever they are tested as good enough - see http://download.opensuse.org/factory/iso/
While openSUSE releases benefit from being "13.2", I feel we need something else than "13.2 Milestone 0" for Factory. But I miss a good idea what it can be - the "Snapshot20140605" the ISOs bear is unfortunately not good enough as this is tagged when the ISOs are ready - but the SuSE-release file is generated from things I need to copy.
- I can image commiting an increasing commit ID whenever Factory is changed. We would talk about "I'm running Factory 20272, 172 builds behind"? - I can also imagine commiting every first of a month or every sunday or ...
Now it's time for your creativity - what are your preferences for a Factory version?
Greetings, Stephan
I really do not care how the versions are identified as long as YaST and zypper do NOT keep coming up with dependency errors! :'( Call the versions, "Bill or George! Anything but Sue!"
