Subject: [cip-dev] Super Long Term ... Support or Maintenance?
Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2016 12:08:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5821B23A.90007@codethink.co.uk> (raw)
Hi,
I am writing a description for the wiki and this topic came to my mind.
It is just a detail...
I would like to propose that we say "maintenance" instead of "support"
when referring to the activities we will do in the open within the CIP
group.
Support has a specific meaning in the commercial world. It is referred
to a "service". In order to gain traction in the industry, the confusion
between maintenance and support plays against us.
In the Open Source world, both words are used indistinctly so I do not
expect any issue by using only (mostly) maintenance.
So we would say Super Long Term Maintenance (SLTM).
Best Regards
