Yes, 12.04 LTS was released last month. Those people that care about long term stability (there's lots of us, that's WHY Ubuntu make LTS versions) might upgrade to 12.04 sometime in the next year or so. Certainly changing the requirement to gettext 0.18 means I wont be able to do any development on EFL and E. I'm in no hurry to update to Ubuntu LTS 12.04. That includes my personal desktop system, and several servers I look after for various people. Yes, I'm writing EFL based software for those servers that use ecore. EFL can be used in headless server software. B-) I suspect a similar story applies to Debian users at least. Long term stability is important for a lot of people. You exclude those people when you reuire the use of latest and greatest libraries. -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world.
