Tumbleweed is not yet another repo, but an independent distribution
Hence it is "interesting" that the openSUSE community manager wants to promote it >:-)
I wonder if the actual official distribution is top priority for anyone other than coolo in this community anymore.
WTF? Are you kidding me? {sigh} Coolo's work is _invaluable_ and essential and with it, there would not be any openSUSE releases. Tumbleweed will build on top of his work, and I hope I can live up to a tiny portion of the skill and determination and persistence that he puts into openSUSE. Without his guidance, and releases, there would not be something called Tumbleweed at all, it just would not be possible. Remember, Tumbleweed is something you install ON TOP OF an openSUSE release. And, in doing some more work with testing today, I think I'm going to have to roll back from my idea of "link the whole thing" and just do it as we have been doing it today, as a project that only includes a few packages to start with on top of the openSUSE released base, and it will grow with time. That's the easiest on the build servers, download mirrors, and most importantly, ease for users to recover if something bad happens. Yes, it will cause more work for me, but overall, that's a much better use of resources. Has anyone who has had questions actually looked at the Tumbleweed entry in the wiki? If so, is it not properly described there? If not, please let me know what questions you have and I will be glad to flesh it out. And lay off the bashing of Coolo, that's just plain rude. You really should be ashamed of yourself. greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
