charlie-tcaLooking for an opinion from the experts here. Xubuntu is going to put Xfce4.7 in Natty. If we release an alpha1 image, we will be breaking the images after the milestone.17:06
charlie-tcaAdding Xfce4-panel 4.7 to natty, we will break the images for up to a month.17:07
charlie-tcaAll the plugins have to be rebuilt for the panels.17:07
charlie-tcawould it be better to release alpha1 or wait until alpha2 from a project and community view?17:08
cjwatsonyou won't be breaking the *images*, surely, you'll be introducing incompatibility for upgraders17:08
cjwatsonI would hope that you'd set Breaks fields etc. appropriately so that apt will just refuse to upgrade until everything settles down17:09
charlie-tcamr_pouit thinks it will break the desktop image itself17:09
cjwatsonI'm having a hard time seeing how; perhaps he could explain?17:09
charlie-tcaall 4.6 panel plugins conflict against the 4.7 panel (so until they are all rebuilt, the desktop won't be installable)17:10
cjwatsonthat won't break images that have already been built though17:11
cjwatsonsure, if you upload 4.7 before alpha-1, you won't be able to build images until everything is coinstallable; is that what you mean?17:12
