We're the first distribution to use clang as its main compiler. That would be thrown away if we were to move to something else as a base.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Hi,<br><br></div><div>i'd say that we blowed up this chance, because of "undefinied quality level" bla, bla bla blockers, bla bla bla, lot of bugs, bla, bla bla. NO GO.<br></div><div>Nobody out there even think about OMA being first distro using LLVM/clang, because of NO RELEASE and NOT existing marketing.<br><br></div><div>Look at the many linux realted sites, blogs etc, news goes crazy everywhere about trivial things like "OMG ubuntu builds kernel 4.5.0, OMG they are some awesome". While we are doing more awesome work, without being sponsored by tons of money.<br><br></div><div>I haven't seen any news out there that OMV is so awesome because it uses LLVM/clang with LTO that gives great performance. There were two main reasons:<br></div><div>1. Out of reach QA expectations<br></div><div>2. Release never happened<br></div><div><br></div><div>Imho if we want to survive RORE (Release Often, Release Early) must be implemented a top of rolling release model only for architectures that have future.<br><br><br></div></div></div></div>
