Ok, I should have phrased it like this: "... we have choosen to release other/optional/minor updates as an exception only." However, with the power of the openSUSE build service, we as a community might come to the conclusion that it actually makes sense to create a repository with fixed packages that covers all those littel bugs and glitches that you find while using the distribution. But it should be obvious, that something like this needs quite an effort by the community.
And that was the original proposal (if I understood it correctly). What would be needed would be a clear communication towards the end user: a commitment from SUSE limited to security and major issues (todays policy) and beyond that a non-commited "community contribution".
