Re: only bug fixes for plasma ?
by Iuri Fiedoruk on Sunday 06/Apr/2008, @08:01
I tought the contrary.
But as most bugfixes are NOT being ported to 4.0 series, and plasma just crashes everyday for me (on logout and sometimes on login), I just want 4.1 stable and with more features. Having to maintain 4.0 series does not help to improve 4.1, so please, kde tem, do not work on 4.0.4-beta, we want 4.1-stable!

I disagree, please do backport bugfixes! I really don't want to have to backport dozens of bugfixes from 4.1 all alone for Fedora 9's KDE 4.0.4 update which is going to come a few days after the release. Please keep users of the stable branch in mind and backport bugfixes to the stable branch whenever possible. With that logic, i.e. if all the bugfixes go to the unstable trunk only, we'll never have a stable release.

This:
> most bugfixes are NOT being ported to 4.0 series
if it's true (I don't have any metrics to decide either way), is the real problem and should really not happen. But dropping 4.0 entirely is not the solution, actually backporting bugfixes is!
