[packaging] Comment #12: re LSB 4.0 Core beta specification

[Dan Kegel]

Jeff,
https://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/ReleaseNotes40#More_Information_and_Feedback
asked for feedback to be
sen to http://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/lsb-discuss
or filed at
http://bugs.linuxbase.org/buglist.cgi?product=Specification&version=4.0
I'm afraid comments sent to packaging@ might get lost in the noise.
