+This part of the discuss let me think something.
+
+We have both some people wanting huge set of backport and other wanting
+long life release w/o change except security/bug fix.
+
+So, why not alternate both, 1 release with backports denied but long
+life, and the 2nd with backports and update but during a shorter period.
+(X.0 would be the new distro with backports, X.1 the one more servers
+oriented or enterprise).
+
+What do you think ?
