Hi, I've recently moved my home's NAS server from intel amd64 platform to arm64 (based on RockPro64 with PCI-E card).
I've picked armbian as a main distro (normally I prefer archlinux) and then I realised you have out-of-the-box solution (openmediavault).
Congratulation for a really good and simple distro. But anyway I've installed it on top of Jammy, but the downside is that it contains quite old packages and kernel 5.15.
Are you going to support Debian Sid (rolling) in the next releases?
Sid support

No, OMV is always strictly tied to Debians stable version.

You'll need a bullseye lite for that board to have the latest stable of OMV installed

Why should i test experimental changes? Development is only done on stable versions because users want stable software.

I'm not questioning, just asking. But at some point you want to start supporting a new distribution release. Are you waiting with development till it becomes stable I you have a transition time when both base system is supported or you create unstable packeges then?

As far as I know, OMV does not generate unstable releases. And releases happen when the software is ready. Debian style.

I'm always starting with the development when a new Debian stable release is published, but OMV will not be released before a x.1 Debian release. There is no rush needed because oldstable is still supported by Debian. OMV does not need to use latest fancy stuff.

Thanks for clarification.
