The cycle started months ago.<br>

<div>I can do this right now. Unless of course everyone
else agrees with you that it is too late for this cycle
and this needs to be discussed later.<br>

I'd not vote on anything that isn't presented to us with all the
information we need to make informed decisions, in the way that
you have been asked to do so.<br>

I'd certainly be interested to see what we would gain from using
it, but that should be part of the proposal.<br>

The reason to do it now is that the next cycle is an LTS cycle which
we almost certainly wouldn't enable such a thing. As zram-config
just adds an upstart job, it's easy enough to pull out of the
default install if it appears to be problematic. I'd certainly like
to see the proposal (unless we can just read the lubuntu thread and
start a similar discussion here). If it's experimental, then I
agree that we shouldn't be enabling it in the default install. If
it's just additional, but stable, then it's something that can be
considered. We have 1 month until feature freeze, so anything that
we think might be worthy for the LTS that we can throw in now *and
stabilize by feature freeze*, we should consider doing so to get
extended testing on it (read: an extra 6 months).<br>
