As came up in another part of the earlier thread, I think this is an opportunity for Modularity. For those things like GNOME that want to rev mid-release, if they shipped the 3.34 release as new stream, those that want to move to it will have that option, and those who fear change can remain on the 3.32 release, even if it's not getting support. This would have to be something communicated at release-time of course. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
