I appreciate this. |

However, when things go down to a problem of manpower, the very first |
8 |
initiative common sense commands is to avoid wasting it. |

And the first way I know to avoid wasting manpower is : |
10 |
- displaying intentions ! |

I have asked here, in 3.4.9 times, for the intentions of the gentoo-sources |
13 |
regarding the 3.4 LTS and was answered that it would not be followed. |
14 |
|
15 |
Fair enough, because I wanted the ck-sources to follow it, we made the job of |
16 |
reviewing all upstream's patches from 3.4.9 up to 3.4.18 and from there up to |
17 |
3.4.23... and then discovered the gentoo-sources catching up from 3.4.9 to |
18 |
3.4.24. |
19 |
|
20 |
Of course I do not blame anybody for this, after all, each to his own. |
21 |
However, the result of this is that we (as GS+CK) have almost certainly |
22 |
achieved a great part of the dirty job twice ! |
23 |
|
24 |
Hence my first question regarding the gentoo-sources project's intentions |
25 |
regarding the 3.6 and 3.7 branches. |
