Sorry, I wasn't clear. It may be that some set of new functionality requires small version upgrades. The feature is the new functionality, not the version upgrades. An example: I want to propose Scratch, the educational programming language, as a feature for F19. It's not big, but it's popular and there's a new book, generating public interest so it'd be nice for it to be included in the process. Scratch itself is a new package. But it requires an update to Squeak VM in order to work properly. This is incidental to the feature itself -- so it'd be weird to classify this as an update to existing functionality -- but the feature isn't "self contained". That said, a significant version upgrade to something _should_ be able to be a feature in itself. -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
