I'm not sure that follows... we'll have to test the new release no matter what, and the old release is just the previous one we tested. > * Undermining the model that Atomic is supposed to support - which is > "you only care about the host as a way to run containers".

Yeah, but... reality isn't going to be that pretty. Also, if we're looking to bring Atomic to more of Fedora than just the cloud guest, I think people will find this less scary. > Telling users to worry about whether it's Fedora 21 or 22 or whatever > kind of reinforces old habits that this is supposed to get us away from. Especially as this develops, if we want to get people actually using it but still be able to make big changes to how it works (especially wrt orchestration and higher levels), having six month release points where users can transition at their own pace seems appealing. We can maybe look at discontinuing older versions sooner than the normal 7 month overlap. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
