| rww | "Debian 7 if you’re OK with the packaging system" | 01:25 |
| rww | i can tell i'm going to disagree with this already | 01:25 |
| jyo | Yes, he suggests Debian 7 in the intro but keep reading until Reason 3... | 01:27 |
| rww | (1) and (2) are legit. (2) is not avoidable because Ubuntu does time-based releases. (3) is the usual Redhat user complaint that's fixable using config iirc. (4) sabdfl just +1ed someone asking for a MRE for mariadb [...] | 01:27 |
| jyo | (1) LTS enablement stack but sure. | 01:28 |
| rww | does LTS enablement stack mean they're dropping support for the kernel trusty comes with in a few years? | 01:28 |
| rww | (few < 5) | 01:28 |
| rww | (5) re: Pollinate sounds about right, and I dunno about the other bits. (6) lol | 01:29 |
| jyo | No, I think it's either original trusty for 5 or ride the enablement train until next LTS. At least that's what the wiki seems to suggest for 12.04 | 01:30 |
| pleia2 | nhaines: yeah, shame about the 18 months thing (not true of any releases anymore!) | 01:30 |
| rww | jyo: i think (1) is complaining about original trusty... | 01:31 |
| rww | "there's also the hardware enablement stack" doesn't really contradict it | 01:31 |
| rww | except to point out that kernel team has even more on their plate, which furthers their point | 01:32 |
| rww | anyways. that blog post belongs on omg!rhel | 01:33 |
| jyo | rww: Agreed. | 01:36 |
| nhaines | I don't understand how 53% to 34% to <3%.... is not impressive anymore? That didn't make sense to me. | 01:55 |
| rww | hrm? | 02:08 |
| rww | oh, the table in the link | 02:09 |
| nhaines | In other news, the server CDs are actually DVDs. | 02:11 |
| nhaines | This is good because servers should be really powerful so you don't really want to run a server that only has a CD-ROM drive. | 02:11 |
