+&gt;<i> Hi!
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Currently the updates policy [1] says that updates to a new version
+</I>&gt;<i> should have 1.1.mga1 as release, and that cauldron should be bumped to
+</I>&gt;<i> 2.mga2 on those cases.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> However, on the packages where version updates are done (e.g. wine,
+</I>&gt;<i> flash-player-plugin, opera, firefox, chromium), doing that causes the
+</I>&gt;<i> following chain of events on every update:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. cauldron submission with 1.mga2
+</I>&gt;<i> 2. mga1 submission with 1.1.mga1
+</I>&gt;<i> 3. cauldron submission with 2.mga2
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So the pkgs have to always be submitted to cauldron twice (unless one
+</I>&gt;<i> skips right to 2.mga2, which would be rather confusing IMO).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&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>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> WDYT?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> [1] <A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=updates_policy">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=updates_policy</A>
+</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.
+
