It’s Time for Ubuntu to Opt for a Hybrid Rolling Release Model
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Even if you are not an Ubuntu user, you probably are aware of its release model.
|
||||
|
||||
There is a [long term support (LTS) release][1] that comes every two year and gets supported for five years. In between the two LTS releases, we see three non-LTS releases that are released at an interval of six months.
|
||||
|
||||
The LTS version retains the same kernel (unless you opt for [HWE kernel][2]) and it also holds on to various software components to provide a stable production environment.
|
||||
|
||||
The non-LTS Ubuntu releases that come in between feature new features from Ubuntu, newer kernel, new desktop environment and newer version of various software available from Ubuntu repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
It is no secret that these non-LTS releases work as a ‘testing ground’ for the features that would eventually land in the LTS release.
|
||||
|
||||
And this is why I suggest to get rid of these intermediate releases and opt for a [rolling release][3] model between the LTS releases. Here me out, please.
|
||||
|
||||
### Go rolling in-between the LTS releases
|
||||
|
||||
The six monthly release schedule gives the Ubuntu developers a tight schedule to work on. It’s good in the way that keeps their objective in focus with a proper roadmap.
|
||||
|
||||
But it also builds additional pressure to deliver ‘more’ new features in every release. That cannot always happen if the timeframe is short. Remember how [Ubuntu had to drop GNOME 40 from 21.04][4] because the developers didn’t get enough time to work on it?
|
||||
|
||||
Also, it’s not that the end user (like you and me) gets a choice to stay with a non-LTS release. The support ends in nine months, which mean that even if you did not upgrade to the next non-LTS Ubuntu version immediately, you have to do it eventually. If it does not happen in six months, it has to in nine months.
|
||||
|
||||
I know you would say that upgrading Ubuntu version is simple. A few clicks, good internet speed and a potential backup will put you on the new Ubuntu version without much trouble.
|
||||
|
||||
And my questions is, why bother with that. A rolling release will be even simpler. Let the upgrades come between the LTS releases.
|
||||
|
||||
Developers release the new features when it is ready. Users get the upgrades with the system updates continually, instead of doing a ‘major upgrade’ every six or nine months.
|
||||
|
||||
See, the people who opt for non-LTS release are the ones who want new features. Let them get the new features through rolling releases. The LTS release schedule remains the same, coming every two years.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Bug testing? Get a testing branch like other rolling releases
|
||||
|
||||
When I say rolling, I do not mean rolling like Arch Linux. It should be rolling like Manjaro. In other words, roll out the upgrades after testing rather than just releasing them in the wild.
|
||||
|
||||
At present, the new Ubuntu versions have beta releases so that early adopters can test it and provide feedback to the developers. This can be achieved by keeping testing and stable branches, like many other rolling release distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
### Rolling release or not? What do you think?
|
||||
|
||||
I know that hardcore Ubuntu users look forward to every single release. The code name, the mascot, the artwork and the wallpapers, these are all part of Ubuntu’s legacy. Should we break with this legacy?
|
||||
|
||||
It’s just my opinion and I am interested to hear yours. Should Ubuntu opt for this hybrid rolling model or stick with the current one? What do you think?

是时候让 Ubuntu 选择混合滚动发布模式了
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
> 在两个 LTS 版本之间有三个短期版本。Ubuntu 应该用滚动发布模式来取代它们。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
即使你不是 Ubuntu 的用户，你可能也知道它的发布模式。
|
||||
|
||||
有一个 [长期支持（LTS）版本][1]，每两年发布一次，并有五年的支持。在这两个 LTS 版本之间，我们可以看到三个非 LTS 版本，它们的发布时间间隔为 6 个月。
|
||||
|
||||
LTS 版本会保持内核不会变化（除非你选择 [HWE 内核][2]），它还维持了各种软件组件不变以提供稳定的生产环境。
|
||||
|
||||
介于两者之间的非 LTS 版 Ubuntu 具有 Ubuntu 的新功能、更新一些的内核、新的桌面环境以及 Ubuntu 软件库中的各种软件的新版本。
|
||||
|
||||
这些非 LTS 版本作为“试验场”，为最终在 LTS 版本中出现的功能提供测试，这已不是什么秘密。
|
||||
|
||||
这就是为什么我建议摆脱这些中间版本，在 LTS 版本之间选择 [滚动发布][3] 模式。个中原因，请听我说。
|
||||
|
||||
### 在 LTS 发布之间进行滚动开发
|
||||
|
||||
六个月一次的发布计划给 Ubuntu 开发者制定了一个紧凑的工作时间表。这是一个好的方法，它可以使他们的目标集中在一个适当的路线图上。
|
||||
|
||||
但是，这也为在每个版本中提供“更多”新功能带来了额外的压力。如果时间很短，这不可能总是做到。还记得 [Ubuntu 不得不从 21.04 版本中删除 GNOME 40][4] 吗？因为开发者没有足够的时间来完成它。
|
||||
|
||||
另外，最终用户（比如你和我）想选择留在非 LTS 版本中也是不可行的。其支持在九个月后结束，这意味着即使你没有立即升级到下一个非 LTS 的 Ubuntu 版本，最终你也不得不这样做。如果你在 6 个月内没升级，那你可能就得在 9 个月内升级。
|
||||
|
||||
我知道你会说，升级 Ubuntu 版本很简单。点击几下，良好的网速和一个潜在的备份就可以让你在新的 Ubuntu 版本上没有什么麻烦。
|
||||
|
||||
我的问题是，为什么要这么麻烦。滚动发布会更简单。让升级在 LTS 版本之间进行。
|
||||
|
||||
开发人员在新功能准备好的时候发布。用户随着系统更新不断得到升级，而不是每 6 个月或 9 个月做一次“重大升级”。
|
||||
|
||||
你看，那些选择非 LTS 版本的人是那些想要新功能的人，让他们通过滚动发布获得新功能。LTS 的发布时间表保持不变，每两年来一次。
|
||||
|
||||
#### Bug 测试？像其他滚动发布的版本一样做个测试分支好了
|
||||
|
||||
当我说滚动发布时，我并不是指像 Arch Linux 那样的滚动。它应该是像 Manjaro 那样的滚动。换句话说，在测试后推出升级版，而不是直接在野外发布。
|
||||
|
||||
目前，新的 Ubuntu 版本有测试版，以便早期采用者可以测试它并向开发者提供反馈。这可以通过保留测试和稳定分支来实现，就像许多其他滚动发布的版本一样。
|
||||
|
||||
### 你对滚动发布怎么看？
|
||||
|
||||
我知道 Ubuntu 的铁杆用户期待着每一次的发布。代号、吉祥物、艺术品和墙纸，这些都是 Ubuntu 的传统的一部分。我们应该打破这种传统吗？
|
||||
|
||||
这只是我的看法，我很想听听你的看法。Ubuntu 应该选择这种混合滚动模式还是坚持目前的模式？你怎么看呢？
