This plan has also come up before. ;) Pros:
- Gives us a 6monthish time to retire/update things if needed. - Gives us a clear place we can tell users: "Things might break here, please do lots more testing, etc" - lets us do incompatible upgrades if we need to. Cons: - We never know when exactly a point release is going to appear until it does. RH never announces them in advance. So, might lead to scrambling. It's pretty unlikely we could push those updates the same day as the point release... so when would we? would they go through testing as usual? - Do we want for CentOS/SL/whatever to release their version? If not, it could lead to breakage for users who use epel with those until they do. - Once we push those incompatible ones that require the new point release, does that just leave people who are on an older one out in the cold? Or they get the updates and it breaks them even though they didn't apply the point release? kevin
