I love it when people make their own argument for themselves, without even realizing it :) Those "longterm/stable" kernels contain bugfixes _only_, just like the "stable" systemd release tree works. No new features happen on those kernel branches, and I _STRONGLY_ recommend using the latest kernel release always, as sometimes I don't always catch all bugfixes that might be relevant for the stable kernel releases, I'm only one person. So, I'm glad you like the systemd method of releases, they copied what we do in the kernel exactly the same way. greg k-h _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
