Does anyone have any thoughts, alternatives, or strong objections to any of this?
There is a reason why an evergreen user might use a recent kde version: that he updated to a then recent version while 11.4 was current. But there is no reason I can see for updating to a _more_ recent version once evergreen starts its cycle.
I don't know if I explained my point :-?
For example, I'm using 11.4 and the stable kde repo. When 11.4 reaches EOL and evergreen starts, can I continue to use that version, or do I have to revert to the original KDE as shipped with 11.4, or what?
Yes, but if we only take that into account, we wouldn't have eol at all, and we would just support every release forever. However, we have limited time and build resources, so we have to draw the line somewhere. If someone wants to continue using an unsupported release, they need to be prepared to not have support for it. Otherwise eol completely loses its meaning. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
