That's why I argue for a 12 month cycle: better for ALL our users. So if it doesn't impact development much (as in - the final result would be as stable and getting it out the door is not any harder) I think we should try to move to this.
+1 to this, with a *HEAVY* emphasis that we get a clearer picture of how this will impact development. Yesterday, I read in some point in this thread that a poll should be conducted about what our release cycle should be. I'm opposed to such a poll because I think ultimately it is up to the Factory team and contributors to decide what is realistically do-able for them. Creating a poll where those of us who believe in 12-month cycle wins and yet Factory says "Wait, we can't do it this way." is a waste of time and would ultimately cause more friction. Instead, I'd like to hear more from Factory folks explaining what is doable, and what isn't. We should be supporting options based on their say-so, not based on our wishlist. But, if we're told 12-month release + 24 month support cycle is doable, you'll already know where my vote lies. :-D Bryen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
