I am also lacking the great idea how to solve that. Most projects ship releases “faster than Debian” (luckily), that shouldn’t prevent anyone to provide long time service for a (selected) branch of one project. For example the Linux project releases often, a lot, and most major versions have a way shorter lifetime than ownCloud. That doesn’t prevent Linux to offer a few longterm versions (and ownCloud doesn’t even have to bother with support of new hardware ;). We wouldn’t expect ownCloud to provide backports of new features or bug fixes, we would “just” welcome (help with) backports of security fixes. Since ownCloud usually discloses and documents properly [1,2] the security issues and fixes, I’d be happy to (get some help in order to) integrate the needed fixes into the stable branch that would be shipped with Debian Jessie (possibly version 7). Don’t you believe it would be possible (we’d be aiming at supporting the security of the stable7 branch about two years after its targeted lifetime)? e.g., 1: http://owncloud.org/about/security/advisories/oC-SA-2013-028/ 2: http://owncloud.org/about/security/advisories/oC-SA-2013-019/ Regards David -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJTPLwVAAoJEAWMHPlE9r08fsEH/iTU0Ah6bU3s1AI5x8h7AU9P l680KNoIsCJ3gUI53JHJpZ+msS9jZBqQVhRnHcRqyiMQvzH3OrE9LLzDR9X43nsd eFe1QYD7UpKqAboddCqJGmOyjtxF+QPqzTLW3POCEpj7SCTKv8n1j3ICtLHvgrK/ o/H9Xc4kUM+WX/3zZMOogfM5dL4zh2y5rLBcghAHJktdQ/QKo0625XYTlb6eC5Ke CpRtQB+uMcLaAIrc5y2tSD6r250mkR/yHfXxT5CLQbcLZQcM8Bv9p90ggWBfjOkw o7vgYzsal/FC8Y5t9BFNmuMgTfWNhAVuYP1HZdd3vxQuJ1Nh7uKb55SPZn5Hed4= =2ki/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.owncloud.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
