Thats why I would like to bring it into the project list. How can we get this process started? At least I would be happy to build against openSUSE:Evergreen for the repos and packages I maintain.
Looking forward for your opinions
My opinion, - Evergreen 13.1 only has a planned support period of January 2016 to November 2016. - Evergreen 13.1 is currently expected to be the last Evergreen release as that usecase that was motivating the core Evergreen team has been mostly addressed by openSUSE Leap - Other repositories are, and should always be, considered 'secondary' to the main distribution - There should be no expectation of support, and they are always provided 'as is'..or perhaps more accurately, 'at the whims of' our maintainers - Maintaining additional repositories for old versions of the distribution gets harder over time - I think it's perfectly reasonable for maintainers to stop supporting older versions of openSUSE in their repositories as soon as it falls out of official support. So putting my thoughts together, I personally feel it's unreasonable to expect most of the openSUSE Project to support Evergreen at the same level they do the official distributions. I have no objection to anyone who chooses to support Evergreen in their repository, but I understand anyone who chooses not to do so. I think that's a natural outcome of the nature of the Evergreen project, and given the Evergreen projects likely demise next year, I do not see justification for the large amount of effort that would be required to change that, both on the parts of the Evergreen team and all the individual repository maintainers.
