Hi all,
There are lot's of discussions, but it can be hard sometimes to
actually determine someone's opinion.
So here is a quick poll, please reply either to the list or directly
to me with your yes/no answer and (optional but welcome) a short
explanation to your standpoint. It doesn't matter if you are a user
or developer, I'd like to see your opinion regardless.
Please DO NOT reply to the replies, I'll summarize the results in a
week's time and then we can discuss it further.
Should we drop support for kernels <2.6.22 in our v4l-dvb repository?
_: Yes
_: No
No
i am an idiot - i read the question backwards
that really should be "YES"
i don't think old kernels should be maintained within the v4l-dvb tree
that is the job of the distributions - for which people pay money
let the distribution vendors pick that one up
Optional question:
Why:
i don't have a vote as i'm only a user and not a developer
but i thought i would just make one point
as far as i can see, the v4l-dvb tree exists to create support for a
particular class of hardware within the linux kernel
the separate tree is very useful to lots of people (i include myself
in that) - but it is a byproduct of the development methodology
so if you think this group's mission is to provide support for
distributions then you should vote no
and if you think this group's mission is to provide support for the
linux kernel then you should vote yes
Thanks,
Hans
