As a point of reference, the OpenStack Infrastructure team only uses LTS distro releases to run production systems. We've also got a modest sized OpenStack deployment on its way to production, again on an LTS distro release. I agree that releasing server software which is only well tested on "desktop" pace distro releases would be a serious misstep for the project. -- Jeremy Stanley __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
