Juju Stable Update Policy

[Martin Pitt]

Hello Alexis,

thanks for writing down the summary, and the initial adjustments after
our PMs. Sorry for responding so late, this slipped through the cracks :(

In general this seems fine to me, I just have two questions:

Alexis Bruemmer [2014-06-26 13:00 -0700]:

Out of interest, how is that enforced? If you dist-upgrade one VM but
not the other, will bad things happen? Or should that be worded
differently?

This really seems to be the crux of regression testing as far as SRUs
and existing cloud deployments are concerned. Whenever I try to open
the google docs I just get a "File unavailable. Sorry, there's a
problem with this file.  Please reload.", so I can't look at the
details. Does that mean that newer clients are tested on existing
deployments with older servers and agents? Which combinations does
that cover?

Thanks,

Martin
