Sure, why not? openSUSE version numbers have always been a work of meaningless fiction (eg. in the Old Model, numbers would change totally arbitrarily and have no meaning behind them at all openSUSE 12.3 -> 13.1 was not a 'major release', we could have called it openSUSE)
I managed to click send without finishing this thought.. ..we could have called it openSUSE 12.4, and kept on just adding 0.1 forever, so we'd be openSUSE 12.7 or so now) at least the proposed new numbering, starting at 42 and keeping in sync with the version of SLE sources used by adding 30 (eg 42.1 would be based on SLE 12 SP1 sources) would mean users would know when there is a major codebase change (43 would be based on SLE 13) and that's going to be something important for people to know going forward. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
