[ I didn't say it wouldn't be feasible; just that it would be a lot of work, and that I don't see *me* doing it in the near future -- the other GNOME folks you mailed might though; in fact I might provide help for some stuff in this project; I can't commit to it, that's all. ] > I've checked KDE and Gnome and the security maintenance overhead is > acceptable.

Ok; I thought KDE and GNOME had been ranked out, as I read in an IRC meeting log of the project. So, how does it happen? Is there a staging archive before it's released? What's the timeline to select versions for this half release? Any policies / guidance pages? Same as for backports? -- Loïc Minier -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
