[Mageia-dev] Fwd: [FOSDEM] Cross-Distribution devroom: Call for Participation

Fri Nov 11 20:09:06 CET 2011

How about something about the difficulties of maintaining projects that don't 
+have some kind of LTS concept (or don't even care about older versions), that 
+could easily be crossdistro. (i'm thinking of Google, Mozilla, KDE (kmail1), 
+etc... )
