On the commercial side, I am starting to hear rumblings of people asking for minor (stable) version upgrades instead of individual patches. Precisely due to what RP mentioned in the original thread. Bugs/CVEs where does one end and the other begin? The message is starting to get to end users that they want versions that are declared 'fixed' by the upstreams for security issues... and they're understanding of bug fixes as well. As various security regulations start to take hold throughout the industry, I expect more and more of this as the argument for only simple backports to be reduced. We are at a point in time where we can help shape the future direction of the embedded industry vs it being dictated to us when it's difficult or too late for us to change behavior. --Mark > Regards, > > > _______________________________________________ > Openembedded-architecture mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-architecture > _______________________________________________ Openembedded-architecture mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-architecture
