Thanks, Mike, that's a great illustration of the point I was trying to make: the Arch model sounds much like what I was trying to suggest for Fedora, a simple two-track 'devel' and 'stable' model with QA between the tracks. And as you point out, on the face of it it appears to involve much less drudgery for maintainers. I have never run Arch, but I do get the general impression it provides a sufficiently reliable experience for the kinds of users Fedora and Arch have. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
