The advice please is if the overall plan is to move completely to a
server based distro and use as a desktop OS is limited should I just
stop wasting my time and step off now and return to linux.
Mike,
I think you've misunderstood the proposal a bit. The plan isn't at all to move
completely to a server based distro - I sincerely hope I didn't give that
impression.
The Dev branch will continue to have a full desktop and will continue to be
updated from the Oracle software repositories (which are still open).
The proposal for the Stable branch was for it to be a clone of the dev branch
in every way, just that we'll also provide critical security updates for a
small set of packages, for a fixed time period.
While the stable branch is sat there only getting security updates, the /dev
branch will continue to be updated, receiving the latest and greatest desktop
software.
Regards,
Alasdair
