Because there are conflicting goals between maintainers of major componenets. We have major things like GNOME and Firefox, where updates are generally kept to minor release updates, avoiding major changes during a Fedora release cycle. Then we have major things like KDE, where every new version is pushed to all current Fedora releases as rapidly as possible. The argument is that Fedora should aim to have a single update policy, so that users can know what to expect (without having to know the different policies of different sets of maintainers). The argument started because, after a bad update, FESCo talked about trying to get more testing before pushing updates, and Kevin Kofler started a flame war here to "rally support" against a non-existant proposal he didn't like. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
