Question Regarding the Proposed openSUSE (freeze - release) Distribution: When I think of distros made for stability, two distros come into my mind - Debian and CentOS Debian gets faster package updates than centOS but, Debian has slower package updates than current openSUSE.
So, Richard, how fast package updates will be on proposed openSUSE Distribution. In your talk you told that the package update will decrease in comparison to current openSUSE distribution. In terms of package update frequency where will you place the proposed distribution with respect to the Debian and centOS. Faster than Debian or somewhere in between Debian and centOS or even slower than centOS.
My guess would be something in between. Somewhere in this conversation coolo proposed to keep inner rings tied to SLE sources but as openSUSE is much bigger than SLE, I personally think that next openSUSE release could be something like a mix of SLE core and Backports project Ludwig spoke about (video upload pending) and maybe even more. But generally in the released products, we tend to try to keep same versions. If we tie core to SLE, we will also have quite small differences between 13.3 and 13.4 but at some point we will get a big jump when we will migrate to SLE13.
3 year or more release cycle doesn't matters much to me. But, as normal conservative user what matters to me is package update frequency.
Should be pretty safe - no big version updates, we have Tumbleweed for crazy guys like me :-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
