Hi Todd, I copied the mailinglist to it, as that I want to make sure that everybody can comment on the proposal On Thursday 10 October 2013 23:50:39 you wrote:
So there will be no way for anyone not in factory to even run betas, not to mention git snapshots? I think that will greatly reduce the amount of testing going on for KDE. Up to this point openSUSE has been one of the best distros if you want to test unstable KDE SC releases, but these changes will end that.
As indicated this still is a proposal to move forward and open for discussion. If this was set in stone, then it would have been executed. It seems that people would like to keep KDF building for the current openSUSE version and I guess we can find the setup that the minor releases are only build for the current openSUSE version in the KRXY repo's and that we enable the builds in KDF as soon as we have the Beta for the upcoming KDE Release.
I would suggest that you build KDE:Unstable:SC for both factory and the most recent openSUSE version at least. I would also put KDE SC releases in KDE:Release:x as soon as it enters beta.
In my opinion the KDE:Releases are targeting stable releases and not Beta's.
I would also suggest that, instead of KDE:Unstable:Extra, you call it KDE:Extra:Unstable.
I am fine with this proposal if other people also agree with it. For me the Unstable should be first to indicate that the software is not considered to be stable. Then we divide it in SC (KDE Desktop) and Extra (Apps).
I might also change KDE: Unstable:SC to KDE:Release:Unstable, KDE:Release:Snapshot, or KDE:Release:git.
See also above. I don't think that this would increase visibility or usability for the users. Regards Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
