I don't mind disagreeing, but I don't think we do. What I'd like (in my deams) is for <some set of people> to work togather to provide a consistent upstream LTS, which you could deploy from git and distros could easily package to fit their individual needs. I just think if we look at who in the community has developer resources and a vested interest in LTS it's the Distros (and perhaps some larger users?) -Jon :Edgar : :On 4/11/17, 8:50 AM, "Jonathan D.
