[opensuse-m17n] [M17N]Drop SLE_10/SLE_11/SLE_11_SP1/openSUSE_11.4/openSUSE_12.1, add SP3.
Hi, listmates, I'm planning to drop SLE_10, SLE_11, SLE_11_SP1, openSUSE 11.4 and openSUSE_12.1 repos and add SLE_11_SP3 repo to M17N. Reasons: For SLE: * I'm not sure about the history of M17N repo. But in my view, the SLE repos to be dropped are very old (even SuSE didn't sell them for a while). * Seldom people actually use those repos, they're just wasting our resources. * Even if there's still very few people who are using obsolete SLEs, I suppose they're not using packages from M17N at all because this is a repo for local packages. Who will use an input method on a GUI-less server? For openSUSE 11.4/12.1: * They're EOL. Instead, we'll: * add the new SLE_11_SP3 repo for SLE users. * add Evengreen repo for users who prefer LTS. * keep SLE_11_SP2 for a while to make users' migration to SP3 smooth. Any comments/suggestions? Greetings Marguerite -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+owner@opensuse.org

Hi, I do not know this is really related but after the repositories are removed, OBS started to publish packages on M17N/Devel. Thanks, Fuminobu TAKEYAMA (2013/06/27 2:55), Takashi Iwai wrote:
