Apparently we do not have that policy, or it is not enforced.
There are messages regularly send about failing packages.
Please read my message suggesting a policy again. I pointed out that we should have a clear direction about when stuff gets evicted. The messages about failing builds addresses only 1/2 the problem of "we have too many failing builds".
And what is wrong with not having the "latest and greatest"?
We are talking about d:l:p and Factory (the word “development” is a hint). These are supposed to be the latest and greatest (without the bleeding edge with the stress on “bleeding” as was the situation with Fedora Rawhide). If you want mature and secure, then it is Leap (or SLE) we are talking about.
And again, my previous message where I proposed a simple policy had some provision for "$SOME_ACCEPTABLE_TO_US_VERSION_DRIFT_TO_LATEST_UPSTREAM" Later, Robert
Sounds like you feel we have to chase the tip, which is fair. But does that mean everyone else has to feel the same way and act accordingly?
Yes, when we are talking about Factory. You are free to use SLE- 12 (sorry, Leap 42 is EOS), if you are conservative and don't want change. It is still supported.
Best,
Matěj
