This is a perfect time to re-ask the question that Geoffroy asked the other day...
Should we change the default repo to be daily instead of snapshots? If QA is testing daily images against snapshot repos because that is the default, that's a good argument for changing the default to daily. The question then becomes: how do our customers use the daily images? I am willing to bet they really don't want the bleeding (possibly broken) edge. In fact, the official stance is that, in general, we don't really want anyone other than developers using snapshots. The are there for engineering and development use and convenience. Customers and others use them at their own risk. Based on that assumptionŠassuming it is validŠI think we should default to daily instead. Anyone think differently? Thoughts?
