Hello all,<br><br>I believe a significant quantity of Ubuntu Studio users stay with a LTS version for stability reasons and I feel strongly about providing reasonable backports for the latest LTS version.<br><br>Therefore, would it be unreasonable to maintain an "official" Ubuntu Studio backport PPA?<br>
<br>This would provide a single additional repository for users to add that would provide continual and pervasive updates to applications for those who do not wish to leave the stability of the LTS versions. This would be in contrast to searching for various PPA's to find the application you want updated.<br>
<br>I have already made a limited commitment to backport certain core applications (e.g. JACK, Ardour) in my own PPA. If the suggestion for an "official" Ubuntu Studio backports PPA is rejected I will continue to support the LTS backports in my personal PPA. If the suggestion is accepted I would gladly accept responsibility for a similar limited scope of backports.<br>
<br>I look forward to seeing comments on this idea.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Would there be a reason we wouldnt use the official backports? The backports team dont bite, and I think they would be more than happy to have our efforts and perhaps even accept one of us onto the team. </div>
