We need to make some commitment to supporting platform APIs during these rolling releases between LTS so developers know what they can expect. Personally I don't think "target only LTS releases" is going to be acceptable to most ISVs, especially those writing consumer "apps", where you can go from nobody to the most downloaded and back to nobody in the span of 2 years (think of the rapid rise and fall of games like Words with Friends, or Draw Something). - -- Michael Hall mhall...@ubuntu.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJRMBqsAAoJEInUYcGJgfVyfX0P/2gey8elWHaCny6pyvcB4GIx xyq4rTRMGXmV65TBNqSEaBGmQz53jFoDuHf2pcgOjhLnv6ILHH4n8toXivaRcR4c eFItKN8L2cshCHwSjEGI23DJ1Ll2VNx4eXoTOVe/PYIO++jluXGFMtmx2FkFF6lp Bcw54XuhF5TzdNh0NMkBmzJwMCaqgB5A00J4brJSHarqs8pnUykES/0sEtttUFdT y/7LYZGKhoCRTZ9VYrVFoRNLCAV/+2BnP9nDg6lZMkuxFyfFdFDbreDX0NGjzkLW f0squ6W7bSlW3ZRQr8OKXI7quOJ6dzp+QkELVNElolKKAdmBwZMJ/RFhLfMV4stm X/K43es9ySb2oUhBRs9KRs25gIFQ+LyrqYJLIIiW5vRLlny1q7laeaGX4bh4Dete tr1CLudGZQjM0RQvF6Hy1qisfyAhwpQFr2Q/tsNjTFejedLvuDPSkebUK1tPGbU3 nTOh4HvRnvGtWOLK66iQoW4OcWYfU3gv6t0sdTKwF+HeaO/y+0jVMYFJ1se0vG0P byG8ak8/avguqq8L3wZgCOncNfQLPwK7BxI+MFkmp89b3Z1ndq/ieiG9iFYNpai2 CTRZpo0I8W0L5YjXOV4YK5e0dDbsEg+c8UrrEE762o1U5gxwvJ0uA9rbsQZ4mNhV SwNDv8cT+4NhBUSpWbk3 =nv7d -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
