It cannot be up to consolidations individually, how would you then handle cross-consolidation dependencies?
Very carefully :-) If the dependency is on public interfaces that have a Committed stability, then this isn't much of a problem. The consuming consolidation can use any Minor or Micro release from the set of available releases that have the feature in question. If the dependency is less stable, then the consuming consolidation needs to do more work validating and testing. If the dependency is one of the contracted Private ones, there is little to no wiggle room - both consolidations *must* release in lockstep. This is why depending on implementation details is bad, and why the ARCs push teams to develop public Committed interfaces instead. -John _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
