by magnus » Jun 17th, '11, 19:26 I think the whole discussion is dominated by "technical" users. I, as a simple user, need a stable, secure system where I can use my applications. Gnome 2, 3, 4 ??? KDE 4.6, 4. 7, 5.0 ??? What does it matter. At the office a must use a system called xp, but for our 10.000 girls and boys it runs stable. That's it. I admit, this is a very simple view. But for me and a lot of users a very important criterion. I don`t believe this can provide a "rolling release" (in the moment). So I prefer a a reasonable release cycle with enough time for the development and the qa. For example, a new release every nine months brings me the new developments, not just the latest. But I can also update my system with a clear conscience and without great risks. The technicans can play with cauldron and the latest developments
