Hi, > SMW 1.9 (15/03/2013) -> MW 1.19 (09/02/2012): 1.1 years
On a site note, in two or three occasions when I was adding something to SMW 1.9 I had to back down because suddenly the approach preferred didn't work in MW 1.19 (I think it is one hook, two methods when testing against MW 1.19) which means I had to find a workaround just to make sure it works with MW 1.19. This sort of thing drains motivation (at least mine) while doing a change having the need to dance around a few more blocks just to satisfy the need of supporting MW 1.19. > SMW 1.10 (15/08/2013) -> MW 1.19 (09/02/2012): 1.5 years This proposal would take developers hostage to accommodate MW 1.19 and negate any possibility to use new classes introduced in MW 1.21 (prominently Content class etc.). > They should also think about if a bug or feature is important enough to be > backported. Well, if I find something to fix I'll do it for the current master and anyone who finds the time can make a backport but I'll stopped doing extra interventions some time ago. This also means that when SMW 1.10 is in master fixes are applied to that master and any other branch has to find a maintainer if he/she wants to have those fixes applied. PS: When I started this thread, I thought I ask some tangible questions about how and why .. but somehow I have the feeling this discussion is going to be less tangible in its outcome because it is more about SemanticBundle or SemanticForms than it is about SMW and LTS. Of course if the discussion is shifting in favour of SemanticBundle being the main LTS release holder than this is fine as well but than we should shift the topic as well.
