[Vectorlinux-devel] "Unstable" repository

[Jose J. R. <jo...@gm...>]

Were not all here yet (we've got around 66% of the proposed members
in), but sort of to break the ice, here goes my first post to the
list. And it's sort of the reason behind the list idea, since johnvan
was already gone for the night and I didn't want to forget about this
matter, lol. I think a non-realtime discussion vehicle like this is
also very useful and doesn't require you to be online at the Forum
either.

As I was packaging Amarok 1.4 beta1 last night, I was wondering if I
should upload it for general consumption, because it's a beta app and
people tend to upgrade everything lately, something that has caused
problems already. So I figured we need an "unstable" repository. We
have "testing", but that's for testing packages with regard to
packaging problems. All packages should start in testing, but then get
moved to "stable" or "unstable" according to the status of the app
itself.
