Will the FLAVORS feature be MFH'd to 2017Q4, or will it first show
up with 2018Q1? I'm not going to flavor public ports just yet, but I
have some local ports that would benefit from the feature.
Categorically, if it lands in HEAD this quarter, it wouldn't appear
in quarterly until 2018Q1. Major new features without the kinks
ironed out is exactly what shouldn't get merged to quarterly.
AFAIK no flavor features can be committed to the official repo yet (a
commit hook will prevent the commit).
The feature is in for private testing.
My understanding is that commits with flavors will be allowed to head
starting in 2018, so the first quarterly with flavors in it should
happen for 2018Q2. But, being the feature in by 2018Q1 backported
updates may include flavors.
I'm aware of all of this from the official feature announcement. I
figured the earliest it would appear in quarterly would be 2018Q1. Per
my original message, I'm not looking to flavour my ports in the public
repo just yet, but use the feature internally and wanted to know when it
would hit quarterly so I can put a timeframe on production use.
Then, starting from January, quarterly branches could get some flavored
ports. The bulk will be hitting quarterly with 2018Q2.
