| glade88 | 'lo.. I've just come across an idea on brainstorm. How often are the images on the cdimage server updated for stable builds (not the daily builds) | 19:57 |
|---|---|---|
| cjwatson | they aren't :-) | 20:00 |
| cjwatson | well, perhaps you can give an example | 20:01 |
| glade88 | This is the idea.. http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/16341/ -- I proposed the daily build link, but I guess they are looking for the stable release ones | 20:02 |
| cjwatson | updated daily> absolutely not no never nohow | 20:03 |
| glade88 | heh | 20:03 |
| cjwatson | we can't expect mirrors to run any kind of custom scripts | 20:03 |
| cjwatson | they're usually syncing any number of different sites and anything more than rsync is a no-hoper | 20:03 |
| cjwatson | we update LTS releases at point releases, for which we're settling into a six-monthly rhythmb | 20:04 |
| cjwatson | rhythm | 20:04 |
| cjwatson | we don't update other stable releases | 20:04 |
| glade88 | unless, there is something like 8.04 -> 8.04.1 | 20:04 |
| cjwatson | this is really just a "sorry but we don't have manpower to build, QA, and release anything more" | 20:04 |
| cjwatson | 8.04.1 => point release | 20:04 |
| glade88 | ah.. oops :) | 20:04 |
| glade88 | okay, I'd definitely not close the idea.. but would try to reply accordingly.. thanks :) | 20:05 |
| cjwatson | if we did generate daily builds, they wouldn't be mirrored so it is not clear that this would actually help users | 20:05 |
| glade88 | oic | 20:05 |
| cjwatson | it's sometimes frustrating not to be able to satisfy every idea, but this is one of those "best available compromise" kinds of things I'm afraid | 20:07 |
| cjwatson | the daily builds are for the development release | 20:07 |
| cjwatson | they aren't generally suitable for users expecting stability | 20:07 |
| glade88 | +1 | 20:09 |
