A question worth asking is what are the other features lined up for this release and are people in a hurry to use them? Remembering that bug fixes for wayland and anything else should be coming into the point releases and so aren't held up if there is a bunch of good useful features that are held up then sure release now and i'll hold off on packaging all the stuff using eo and I guess it will be up to the maintainers to finish off the interfaces. But if all the major new features are centered around the newer api rather then legacy then there's no point in a 1.19 yet as nothing can really use its new features until interfaces are declared stable anyway. After the interfaces are stable I think it does make sense to go back to time based releases. If everybody else wants to release now thats fine i'll just put off packaging any eo based app until I know which release the eo interfaces will be stable in. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adeliade Australia, UTC+9:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
