Here are My 2 Cents ,
1. Support each release longer, or develop a better way to MFS ( Merge
from Stable ) bug fixes, and driver updates to RELEASE. It always
seams that there are a number of things in X-STABLE I would love to
have in X.3-RELEASE and X.4-RELEASE, and I do not want all of X-STABLE
just some new drivers and fixes .
2. Spell out the entire RELEASE road map at the beginning of the
release. So for 9.0-RELEASE set tentative dates for 9.1, 9.2, 9.x etc
.
I think by the ".2" release of a line we should have some idea
as to whether a particular lineage is going to provide a good basis
for extended life.
if for example we were to declare that 8 is really quite good,
we might decide to declare it as having a longer life and allow 9 to
die earlier as we go forward.
I do understand the requirement for a stable basis for work but I
can not say how many of the changes for newer hardware will get ported
back. or by who.
