After weeks of indecision (or, as I like to put it, consideration), I've determined that we'd better stick with GDM 2.20 for openSUSE 11.0. We will not be shipping the to-be-released GDM 2.22. Thanks to everyone who chipped in leading to this conclusion. Reasons for this include: - Significant risk of breakage due to insufficient testing. It's late in the cycle to be including GDM 2.22, but we couldn't have done it earlier because the upstream code wasn't mature enough. - Greatly reduced configurability. It's not clear how this will affect deployments. - Rapidly changing code base. It will be hard to maintain patches against it for a while yet. - Reduced theming potential. It won't look as good. - Few short-term benefits. While increased testing is important, it could spoil an otherwise excellent release for GNOME - and I think we deserve such a good release this time around. - GDM 2.20 will be supported upstream for a long time still. We'll consider GDM 2.22 for openSUSE 11.1 and hopefully we'll be able to include it then. In the meantime, we'll maintain GDM 2.22 in the build service (probably in GNOME:UNSTABLE) and I'll try to keep it in a state that's compatible with openSUSE 11.0, so those who want to can run it. -- Hans Petter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
