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

</I>
I warned about this when we discussed about release 0 and subrels for updates,
but nobody reacted against at that time, so it ended in the written policy :)
See <A HREF="https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/007080.html">https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2011-July/007080.html</A>
I don't see drawbacks to your change proposal, if no one does, it gets my
vote.
Best regards
