Perhaps a 'framework' initative inside fedora could end up helping to change how individual developers value the issue through as part of their mandate. No matter how we describe it, its an uphill battle that has to include upstream developers or we aren't going to make backwards-compatibility bulletproof even for a well-defined subset of the fedora repository. -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
