If it is installed in parallel, then it can't be named a Release Candidate because it doesn't behave like one :) I agree totally on two releases for the real release code.

It's just an argument that if releases are too close, developers will only have time to fix blockers :) So not so critical bugs tend to accumulate. This could mean that it will loose quality as it goes along if it there are no major obstacles ;) Michael Meeks-2 wrote > > It's not clear to me that releasing less frequently creates more > resources for back-porting and reviewing patches. > See previous answer :) It doesn't create more resources but it provides more time to clean up the slate until the next batch of bugs is introduced :) Michael Meeks-2 wrote > > Anyhow - thanks for the feedback & also for the great work on QA :-) > This is my way to say thanks and to give something back in return for the program that was offered to me. I wish more people would do the same... even if they can't code ;) Best regards, Pedro -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Libreoffice-qa-3-5-0-QA-from-BHS-1-to-BHS-2-tp3643039p3648320.html Sent from the QA mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
