+<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Anssi Hannula at 28/10/11 18:17 did gyre and gimble:
+&gt;<i> I suggest we change the policy to say that package updates to stable
+</I>&gt;<i> should use 1.mga1 release (i.e. no subrel), so that it goes:
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. cauldron submission with 1.mga2
+</I>&gt;<i> 2. mga1 submission with 1.mga1
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> and no extra submissions or commits required.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Then, if some extra fix is needed, one does:
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. cauldron submission with 2.mga2
+</I>&gt;<i> 2. mga1 submission with 1.1.mga1
+</I>
+Only one very minor &quot;regression&quot; is not being able to tell immediately
+from e.g. rpm -qi output that a package is an &quot;update&quot; (of any flavour)
+from the released version. It's not really needed to know this very
+often and it's easy enough to verify where the package came from anyway,
+so I wouldn't say this is a blocker to your proposed change (and
+besides, the process of trying to fix whatever issue has occurred is
+pretty much identical regardless).
