Maemo 6.1
 

This month Maemo Leste has kernel version 6.1...so I started to think would be easy to go Maemo version numbering matching kernel version starting from version 6.1? Then Maemo Leste 7 comes when it comes :)

So would it be good that Maemo 6.1 should be first LTS version?

What you think about that Maemo version numbering?

Re: Maemo 6.1
 

I don't know any Linux distro that follows kernel versioning like that.

Since kernel development happens independently of distro development, that would put unnecessary pressure on distro devs.

I also seem to remember that Torvalds said that the decision to up the major version number is more or less arbitrary.

Re: Maemo 6.1
 

Many Linux distros has some reason why it is not numbered like that. But Maemo doesn't have any reason why not right now.

Actually it doesn't give any pressure at all. They can skip numbers or add RC2 or SP2 or .01 or something to version number or skip some version numbers if needed.

That is true, but major and minor version number go bigger any way. So why not synchronize Maemo version numbering to that at least from 6.1 to some version that not possible. What would be reason that it had to stop?

Maemo is ready for daily use? LTS version?
That's nice :)

On which device? PinePhone Pro?

It is now more like 6.1 Developer Preview version, but there can be path to up to LTS.

Pinephone Pro is not supported at all, but on Pinephone and Droid 4 works quite well.
