Is stable different from latest? I am not sure how much independent decision space he has, otherwise we would have d-bus in stable long time ago. Maybe I don't know the process well enough but I would be surprised that Greg can merge something that isn't approved in latest.
Fingers crossed it is only 4.19, I am kind of seeing this as a bigger event but I may be wrong.
- ufo 8y agoParent poster was referring to the "LTS" kernels: https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html A good number of Linux distributions are based on an LTS release instead of a mainline release.
- binaryapparatus 8y agoYes, I am aware of that but are LTS kernels in any for different from the mainline kernel? Can LTS kernel contain code that is not approved and tested in mainline first? They are 'older' but they contain same feature set that is already approved by Linus, right?
