But Carlos brings up some good points about testing and supportability - something like that would need to be tested by someone, and personally, I'd rather the developers were focused on the next release rather than on "fixing" the current release media with the latest patches.
That's right...
The first answer I would be inclined to give to users who installed with unofficial media containing all current updates and were having post- installation problems would be "download the official release and try that, see if that resolves your problem" - precisely because these interim "releases" wouldn't have the kind of testing the actual releases have (ie, no alpha/beta/milestone releases, for example, and not being used by anywhere near as many users).
However, I would certainly love to see a midterm DVD with the updated packages. Of course I would. But I don't see it as an official thing, just as an experiment. And the publishing site clearly saying that it is an experiment, in case of problems revert to the official one instead. Something like that. I would be tempted to try a hand at it, but I don't know how an install DVD is done. Knowledge of how to boot the dvd, etc. I have not located a documentation of how the openSUSE DVD is created after having a list of packages to put on it... Creating an add-on DVD with the required patches is easier. But of course, that's two DVDs to download. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
