Post #2350408

@jorge@hachyderm.io I think that distributions should work the way that any other package registry works: like PyPI or npm or Crates, etc. So the answer is: a distribution should do what the upstream does. If the upstream provides a stable release series, the distribution should follow it. And if the upstream is a rolling release, the distribution should follow that, too. I think it's bad for distributions to ship software beyond its upstream maintenance window.
