This suggestion has been resisted in the past as it's not up to our community's QA standards, and implying there is "support" when we can no longer test that changes don't cause breakage is effectively dishonest. In the past we've held that if a branch is no longer testable, then there's not much reason to collaborate on code reviewing proposed backports in the first place. If we're reducing these branches to merely a holding place for "fixes" that "might work" it doesn't sound particularly beneficial. -- Jeremy Stanley __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
