You and I both know that really isn't the case. Each release we put out there is an improvement, an enhancement, and yes even a patch to previous versions. There can be many new things in there, and there can be some old things that *work better* in there (we hope!). Improvements, enhancements and patches all make for minor releases. "Many new things" combined could possibly make for a major release, but in my opinion only if they affect the base system. who gets to decide what "base system" and how much affect is seen, felt, heard, smelt or tasted......or just read about?
Well, I know what I think the base system encompasses. Overall, I don't think it'll be too difficult to look at a package and say "base or not?".
understand, but i *guess* 'base' might be defined somewhat differently depending on the machine owner and his/her needs...like the base system interesting to a SysAdmin at (say) Rackspace is probably different from the base system attracting a Hollywood digital effects artist and both of those different from a nettop user, or your average Linux kernel hacker... etc..
