No, he's not. Dot-0 releases in community FOSS projects are usually not for end users. Everyone with some slight insight (=the typical Factory tester) knows that. Heck, that's exactly why openSUSE no longer releases dot-0 versions of its distribution.
No. openSUSE really never intended a major/minor scheme and explicitly said so when they agreed on the new thing. Any release after .1 will be as different as can be - not meant to be based upon a common 12 with a major break only after 13 came out.
You can only test what you get presented. And if it's broken in several places it's the best thing you can do to tell them
"They" know exactly what's done and what's left to do.
Them is the distribution.
Probably he meant switching DEs. Sorry, didn't want to disturb your general rant against unhappy end users.
I'm not ranting, I'm replying. And Factory is not meant for end users.
Factory is desperate for testers and the best testers are those who actually use software to get things done. User feedback is invaluable. If end users have the skills and time to cope with factory, great. I love it. You should stop discouraging people from making the final product better just because you don't like their conclusions. Anyway, I don't have the time to feed you any longer. There's work to be done. -- Ralf Lang Linux Consultant / Developer B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
