It's a big problem that newbies easily misunderstand the term "LTS". Even if it would be possible to provide upgrades because software doesn't share dependencies and even if it could be guaranteed that an upgrade wouldn't cause issues on any hardware somewhere on this planet, it's important not to upgrade to new releases, to avoid breaking work -flows. If one user needs 10 minutes to learn using an upgrade, it's no big deal. If 250 students or 250 employees from one day to another get jumped by updates, it not only becomes 2500 minutes, it also cause indignation and could interrupt projects at awkward moments. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
