The maintenance burden of upstream deviation is greater than the maintainer would like to undertake, as is the risk of security issues and stability. The kernel folks are likely walking the same path. For core components such as the kernel and our web browser, this does not seem like a bad thing at all. - -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkxk5lkACgkQ4v2HLvE71NXpVQCfe9w1hgVQgGbN+fQ9hBUoWHSP KyAAn2rd71W8ZsCPIMdDPnUsNB2rr5wL =WEOp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
