Hi


I try to gather all arguments so they don't get lost:


Short Term ABI compability(1-2 years):


* better bug fixing

* faster development

* faster adoption of standards

  - con: we don't want to adapt them because our solution is better


Long Term ABI compability(5-10 years):


* easier life of Linux packager

  - con: you can use Flatpack in many case (disputed)


I think I miss some but feel free to extend the list
