+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Why do we start a new distro then, if it&#39;s to reproduce the errors made<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; in the previous one ?<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 1. we promise people an upgrade path from 2010.1/2<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; They still have an upgrade path, and that wasn&#39;t raising an error.<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 2. rpm/urpmi/rpmdrake does not read release notes<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;    (same goes for many endusers)<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; I disagree. THat&#39;s one of the most important reading when I go from RHEL<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 5.x to 5.x+1, between Mandriva, Mageia or whatever distro I&#39;m using.<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; It&#39;s much more easy to point people to a link and tell them to read, to<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; solve their issue/question.<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; 3. we dont do exceptions for package(r)s<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Life is plenty of exceptions. And there are times when there are good<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; reasons to do them. Creating a new distro is not a task you&#39;ll do next<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; week again. Thinking to fix what was wrong in the previous one was IMO<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; more important than ensuring that level of upgrade path for a couple of<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; users of a package.<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; I especially took time to discuss that point with Anne before taking any<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; decision and documented it<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; (<a href="http://brunocornec.wordpress.com/2011/05/16/considerations-on-mondorescue-packaging-for-mageia/">http://brunocornec.wordpress.com/2011/05/16/considerations-on-mondorescue-packaging-for-mageia/</a>)<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; I&#39;m a bit disappointed that no real discussion/vote/choice was made<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; publicly.<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;&gt; This is an open system. You (as an interested person) could have<br>
+&gt;&gt;&gt; started this public discussion any time. Of course, starting it a<br>&gt;&gt;&gt; couple of days before release may be a bit late.<br>&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt; hi wobo<br>&gt;&gt;<br>&gt;&gt; Discussion was started some weeks ago IIRC<br>

+<br>As a reminder, release notes are on a wiki. You can add yourself your contribution :)<br><br>-- <br>Anne<br><a href="http://www.mageia.org">http://www.mageia.org</a><br><br>
