Hello. Other have already answered with more details and insight, so I'll just give my 2c. Waiting for (practically) 2028 is way too long. So OK if 15 has some ABI instability; OK if 15 is delayed in order to make it stable. Just to give contest, I'm eagerly awating 14.3 release in order to start investigating my WiFi again; right now I've cherry-picked too many patches and would need to stop and think about what I did... :). Thanks for all your work. bye av.
