I'm planning on using 3.1 for 12.1.
Good.
We don't branch for every kernel I push to Factory so it'd be something of a pain to go back and adjust the 3.0 kernel for Factory.
I understand that. However, leaving FACTORY users vulnerable is not a good option IMVHO. Maybe in such times (when HEAD has already moved to a not-yet-stable -rc1 and important fixes come up in 3.x.y) the tumbleweed kernel (which is a de-facto, even if unofficial branch of Kernel:HEAD IIUC) could be submitted into FACTORY? For me it is not *that* important as I'm running HEAD anyway (and in cases of it being a bit borken, as 3.1.rc3 was, I can manually install the Tumbleweed kernel), but I'm planning on converting fome new people to FACTORY with my oS Conf talk/workshop "surviving openSUSE Factory", and I don't want to scare them away with "but beware that there are often no secfixes for the kernel" :-) Best regards -- Stefan Seyfried "Dispatch war rocket Ajax to bring back his body!" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
