Perhaps we could discuss adding Debian-7.* (the current Debian stable release, Wheezy, aka Debian 7.x)? I know there's some different opinions, but I'm just gonna put in my two cents for why that change would imho be beneficial and harmless:
- No need to update the list for each point release. Since a Debian point release happens every other month and since these updates would never make it to a previous poky release, the distro version would be stale within two months of a poky release.
- Debian is one of few distros that includes this granular version level in the lsb version. Adding a 7.* glob would normalize it with other distros.
- Limited scope: "[The Debian point releases] usually incorporate the security fixes released until the time of the update and fixes for grave bugs in the current release" [1]
- Using poky should not make you feel hindered in doing important security upgrades provided by your desktop distribution, or for that matter make you select a different distribution in the belief that Debian stable isn't supported by Poky.
- For organizations and projects with stricter distro needs, the variable is easily overrideable. (This is true the other way around as well, we have already added the glob to our internal layer.)
Thoughts?

(Of course, I have no objections to Otavio change.)
