That implies that Fedora Base follows this "build to stable"
methodology over the course of 3 releases as well, correct? I'm
not saying that is a bad thing, but it needs to be worked out with
the Base WG as one of their primary goals.
Yeah, it's certainly worth talking about in that group.
Also, when Fedora Server N.0 forks, is that maintained in addition
to building towards Fedora Server N+1.0 on the now unstable Base?
This is essentially the idea that Spot pitched at FUDCon
Blacksburg. If the resources to pull it off are attainable, I
think it will go a long way but the requirements to do this
shouldn't be underestimated.
Let's try to avoid sidetracking this thread with discussion of that
idea. I started it in a separate thread on purpose. It's just one idea
and I'm amenable to having it shot down, but it's as good a place to
start as any.
