It wouldn't necessarily mean that rawhide has to be completely frozen. We could still have separate stable and updates-testing repos, so that updates-testing can continue unfrozen during the Alpha and Beta freezes. The exact same setup as F18 currently has, with Bodhi and separate f18 and f18-updates-testing would still be possible. Just no split between rawhide and f18. > (Note that by alpha people really should be stablizing things and we > really don't want disruptive development going on in branched at that > time.) The hard reality is that branched and rawhide are getting pretty much the same set of packages currently. It's a very nice view to let development go ahead in rawhide, and to stabilize branched. But we only have so many developers and everyone is focusing on branched, leaving rawhide broken. -- Kalev -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
