I think there is a better solution, I believe someone alredy proposed it, after some though I think is a good solution: release the updates for different distributions independently, the reason I think this is a good solution is because in the (far?) future the interest for say RHL9 might die out, and then the same problem will happen (one release holding out the others, and then some discussion between the few remaining trying to keep it alive). It also makes it easier to "single out" releases for discarding (or not) depending on the number of updates that actually make it out per release. It also enables a "pseudo support" for those unsupported releases in the fashion of something like the following sentence in an advisory for that version: "recompiling the srpm for RH9 might work, but it might not, it is not guaranteed or tested or supported by the FL community..." (for example for RH 8), although I agree with Jesse that that is a bad idea (pseudo support), but maybe the interested people in the updates will use them or decide to test them and revive the support for it ?. Usual disclaimer: I have no interest on the 7.2 or 8.0 (or 7.3) releases. Carlos -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
