Mainly this is because we aren't clear on the definition of platform. To me a platform is what you use to stick things together.. so ostree, old releases are 2 different platforms. containers and flatpack are different platforms, aarch64, arm, s390, ppc, i386 and x86_64 are all different platforms. workstation, server, and whatever 3rd wheel we are trying for this release are different platforms. So I can see where you are coming from.. but you need to define that somewhere to be clear so I can switch my definition of the last 20 years to this one :). > josh > _______________________________________________ > council-discuss mailing list -- council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to council-discuss-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Stephen J Smoogen. _______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list -- council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to council-discuss-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
