I tend to disagree. People using LTS are somehow conservative and would be at risk to get confused: "so, in the end, is that LTS safe, or is it going to screw up my data?". We could indeed add information in the LTS changelog that is going to change *in the future*, but I personally think it's just better to leave it clean for non-advanced user.
If you install bleeding edge version, better read the changelog in general. And if you don't and it crashes, then read the changelog. In this case, it was not a lot of versions of difference so not even much to read. What I agree on, though, is that we may want to add some kind of disclaimer in the main changelog, and on the download link (latest and greatest one) to warn users that it may be (very) unstable and depending on their situation they may prefer trying LTS. 2015-03-09 17:08 GMT+01:00 Les Mikesell <lesmikes...@gmail.com>: > On Mon, Mar 9, 2015 at 10:58 AM, Daniel Beck <m...@beckweb.net> wrote: > > > >> It is something I'd want to know if I were considering installing the > >> latest LTS release with the idea that it would have fewer > >> regressions,.. > > > > The problem was that he _downgraded_ from latest weekly to latest LTS. > LTS does not yet contain this change, and besides that, _upgrading_ worked. > > > > Yes, exactly.
