<div class="im">&gt;  Hi and congratulations to KDE4 mageia packaging team !<br>
&gt;  I am wondering if kde 4.7.x will land someday into mageia1 backport ?<br>
&gt;  Look, according to Mageia2 roadmap (see<br>
&gt; here <a href="http://blog.mageia.org/en/2011/07/17/mageia-2-release-cycle-support-and-planning/" target="_blank">http://blog.mageia.org/en/2011/07/17/mageia-2-release-cycle-support-and-planning/</a>)<br>
&gt; mageia2 will be released on 04/04/2012. In the meantime, kde 4.8SC will be<br>
&gt; available since January 2012 (see here<br>
&gt;  <a href="http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.8_Release_Schedule" target="_blank">http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.8_Release_Schedule</a>). So we can<br>
&gt; expect that<br>
&gt; kde 4.8 SC will be available for mageia2, right ?<br>
</div>Yep that&#39;s the idea.<br>
<div class="im">&gt; In that case, why not<br>
&gt; backporting since now kde4.7.3 to mageia1 ? Kde 4.7 is already mature and<br>
&gt; well tested in cauldron so it will be a good point for mageia1 to propose<br>
&gt; it.<br>
&gt;  So what it&#39;s your opinion about that ?<br>
</div>If we need to backport something then in all case it would be better<br>
to backport the 4.7.5 release just for avoid later the<br>
« could you please backport 4.7.4 &amp; then 4.7.5 etc etc ».</blockquote><div><br></div><div> Well I am a profane in packaging and I do not know the amount of work to package a new kde 4.x.x release, but you seem to be very efficient in this task. Maybe I am wrong but kde packaging looks like now something more or less</div>
<div>straightforward, I mean automatic ? So why not backporting since now and for every kde 4.7.X release to mageia1, it will make a lot of people happy :).</div><div>One more time, I am not probably aware about the amount of work it implies.... Anyway thanks.</div>
