Fedora is it. If you don't do it now, then we'll *never* get to do it. And one of the purposes of Fedora is to be "First" and do "Features". Make a Fedora Linux 38 Change to do it if you must. But the approach you're going for is not good, because it doesn't drive us to move things forward. There's usually only a drive to upgrade when someone creates a forcing function for it. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
