I saw Dominique's reply which may shoot this down, but for completeness:
I was thinking of a re-spin that was more formally announced and that was available at: http://software.opensuse.org/
Maybe it would have a formal "12.2-respin" and "12.2-respin updates" repos. Even bugzilla could be updated to allow reporting.
That's more of a marketing thing than a development thing. Perhaps we don't do enough to promote the many respins and customized openSUSE's that exist out there in Studio and elsewhere.
Give it a short support cycle of say 6 months so that people could move to 12.3 once it was released.
That just adds more work to those who are responsible for maintaining and updating supported releases. And this causes further confusion to users who download official releases. Furthermore, it creates a misleading impression because now people who see "12.2 Respin" available in our official repositories will assume that the original 12.2 is bad and had to be re-done. Let's stick to the original intent of this thread which is whether Coolo's schedule proposal is viable for those who have the time and ability to work on the next release. Bryen
