However I don't think we're so far off, like I stated earlier, I really think just 2-3 weeks of additional testing and a little bit of conservatism could work wonders.
We'll add for 10.3 two more weeks of beta testing - but I would prefer if folks start testing with Alpha1 ;-)
so you should be less conservative on the doc :-) don't say all the time that the alpha release can't be used for work. very little tests can be done offwork. Real bugs come when one use the app as he does all the time. so to test one needs to make his data at risk. I know it's very difficult to do, but we should define alpha/beta states from the data point of view. I give an example: I use very often the nightly built of seamonkey. I can't wait for the improvements :-). only _once_ in ten years or so I had a lost data (and I have usually fresh backups). All the others problems (like right now) are just seamonkey crashing suddenly or the windows menu not opening the window like it should: nothing harming. in such state many people can start testing. when is this state for openSUSE? alpha? beta? factory? I have a test 10.2 install. May I make factory the update folder and go on? jdd -- http://www.dodin.net Votez pour nous, merci - vote for us, thanks :-) http://musique.sfrjeunestalents.fr/artiste/Magic-Alliance/ http://photo.sfrjeunestalents.fr/artiste/jddphoto/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
