GridCubeprobably because im not very smart14:44
charlie-tcacan we support a 5 year desktop?14:44
mr_pouitwe don't even really support 18 months releases ;-)14:45
charlie-tcaWell, discussions with "flavors" seems to have left me out of the loop14:46
charlie-tcaMaybe we should discuss not supporting any release more than 18 months?14:47
genii-aroundFive year support will mean 3 concurrent LTS releases at times15:01
charlie-tcayes15:04
charlie-tcaWell, we have that already for server. They want to extend the desktop support to 5 years for LTS15:04

madnickThis sounds like good news :)16:47
GridCubei think it sound like mixed news, by one side it means that users can stay whit a single interface for long time, something people actually like, like XP did for example, people just liked it, but from other point the new releases will be far too different 4 or 5 years later to people be confortable whit change16:49
charlie-tcamadnick: we have problems trying to fix things that broke two years ago already in LTS releases, how will we keep it usable for 5 years?16:50
charlie-tcaIt also means three LTS releases supported at the same time, since we have a new one every two years16:50
madnickWell, it will be hard, but for users it sounds pretty good if its possible to coupe16:51
charlie-tcaIt sounds very close to impossible from the developer side, at least for us.16:51
GridCube:/ yes i can understand that16:51
charlie-tcalucid is an LTS release. It has Xfce 4.6 in it. We will be at Xfce 4.12 or 4.14 when it dies?16:52
charlie-tcaWell, going enjoy my vacation now. I'll see everyone Sunday at the meeting! 2011-10-23 at 22:00 UTC17:33
