Consider that Distros may very well pick whatever we call stable for LTS releases. Meaning that non-critical (crash/security) bugs that we miss may wind up living on for a VERY long time. If we don't intend .0 to be stable, then what's the point of versioning in the first place? Xinchen, Very interesting on the fix. I do think it's important for this to land with 7, but at least we can have the discussion. Thanks!!!
