Another option is just release the tarballs once and don't do any respin at all. After all we have build.kde.org that builds the stuff so we are kind of "confident" it builds, if anything fails to build or something big is found we can add it as a note (+ kde-packager mail) to the info page like we did with the nepomuk thing for 4.10.0 http://kde.org/info/4.10.0.php That seems like a "sensible" compromise to me. * We release only one tarball * Distros still can pick up build or bugfixes (as they will do anyway either we include them in a respin tarball or not) * We can "silently" release the *only one* tarball a few days in advance to get distros to package for the release day Comments?
