+<PRE>Hi!
+
+Currently the updates policy [1] says that updates to a new version
+should have 1.1.mga1 as release, and that cauldron should be bumped to
+2.mga2 on those cases.
+
+However, on the packages where version updates are done (e.g. wine,
+flash-player-plugin, opera, firefox, chromium), doing that causes the
+following chain of events on every update:
+
+1. cauldron submission with 1.mga2
+2. mga1 submission with 1.1.mga1
+3. cauldron submission with 2.mga2
+
+So the pkgs have to always be submitted to cauldron twice (unless one
+skips right to 2.mga2, which would be rather confusing IMO).
+
+I suggest we change the policy to say that package updates to stable
+should use 1.mga1 release (i.e. no subrel), so that it goes:
+1. cauldron submission with 1.mga2
+2. mga1 submission with 1.mga1
+
+and no extra submissions or commits required.
+
+Then, if some extra fix is needed, one does:
+1. cauldron submission with 2.mga2
+2. mga1 submission with 1.1.mga1
+
+
+WDYT?
