-Do you think that there is the room for linking something like hipster-current link to latest ISOs and images for Openindiana hipster snapshots, so that people won't get lost in big large list of hipster snapshot images. And/or to have all images/files of one snapshot inside it's folder. -On another topic, about 'entire' state of packages on OI hipster snapshots: I urge on considering keeping in OI publisher, 'entire' package state of at least one previous and latest current OI hipster snapshot (ISO), so to make more easy and predictable updates from previous hipster installs. Deleting 'entire' state of latest current OI hipster snapshot can result in unupdatable installs until potential bugs with updating are fixed in newest hipster, if ever. 'Rolling release' is nothing if there is not some kind of 'release' and still closest to that are OI hipster snapshots, so keeping it's 'entire' state for at least 2 latest snapshots or so is minimum for upgrade path. I also don't understand any reasoning fo keeping /dev repository untouched and not updated, when there is alsmost clear upgrade path from old /dev over /hipster-2015 (that should stay there for upgrade path for consideralbe time too) toward newest /hipster. That is also the reason why keeping package state of at least 2 OI hipster snapshots is needed, to ensure upgrade path regarding /dev old installs too. I think it is truly reasonable to prepare, and do landing of previously tested hipster snapshots, into /dev repository, firstly as upgrade from /dev to hipster-2015 and then to catch the train with hipster snapshots, so that at the end it remains on the same track, with both /dev and /hipster updated at it's own different pace. _______________________________________________ oi-dev mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev
