All in all, I'm in favor of dropping stable keywords for minor arches, |
| 25 |
if it is possible to keep up with the same quality. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
With regards to m68k armin76 blogged recently about an emulator[1]. |
| 28 |
Maybe if we don't want to drop stable keywords a "keywording and |
| 29 |
stabilization timeout" [2] would be sufficient (i.e. every dev can add |
| 30 |
a testing/stable keyword after testing it). |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Do we keep any statistics about the user base of each arch? There was |
| 34 |
a GSOC project called gentoostats [3], does anybody know anything |
| 35 |
about its current status? |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Kind regards |
