Hello Axel,
the only PM who is expected to work on Leap as well would be Stefan Behlert. He's in cc of this email. As already mentioned I'll discuss
Just to make this clear: I don't think Leap has a PM asigned to it. This does not mean we do not _care_ about Leap :) But it's different than e.g. SLES, where the PMs make the decisions, and are much more involved. Never-the-less, let me comment on the image refresh: It may sound like a good idea, and it can help in cases where newer hardware needs a new Installer (resp. support for it). AFAIK Lepa has the "installler sef-update" not enabled, so this would be even more beneficial in such cases. But be aware: We have seen with SLE 15 SP1 that this is not "just" a simple refresh. It requires work, updates of media configuration as well as testing, and then you have to get it done at the "right" point in time. Or you leave out a dependency, or miss an important security update. This does not mean Leap should not do it, but is a warnign that it's not easy. And I wonder how often people really stumble into new hardware issues before the next release. With SLE, this happens due to the long-time use of the same Service Pack, but for Leap I would expect that people rather take the latest version of Leap available, leaving only a 12 month timefrmae where it may be needed to update the installer. Not sure if it's worth the work therefore. But as mentioned, I am just bringing it up, so you can make a good decision on it. ciao, Stefan
this on tomorrow's releng call. Axel, feel free to add details to https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/ReleaseEngineering-20200422
