Hi gents, |
2 |

There have been a massive amount of updates on the policies. Those |
4 |
courageous enough can use the live policy ebuilds to test them out and |
5 |
generate bugs for them. If the fixes are within the contribution modules, |
6 |
they are quickly applied upstream so that's a huge advantage. |
7 |
|
8 |
I will probably generate a rev6 release in the next few days who might or |
9 |
might not see the stable light, depending on how effective it is. |
10 |
Regardless, I will continue tracking upstream as close as possible (which, |
11 |
in a policy world, is a good thing as things change too fast). |
12 |
|
13 |
So just see this as a heads up - I know I haven't released one in a while, |
14 |
and that's because upstream has become massively active (from 15 commits per |
15 |
months to 30 commits per day - that's a factor 60 difference!) and the |
16 |
changes aren't always as good as we would hope (so they need close follow-up |
17 |
from our side). |
18 |
|
19 |
The release of a rev6 however is needed to handle changes in Gentoo (like |
20 |
openrc doing /run migrations and such). |

Wkr, |
