I certainly like the idea of updating the main distribution w/ porter fixes at some point; whether it's before the release (which could put a strain on RMs, introduce potentially destabilizing changes during a freeze, etc), or after a release (debian 3.2 is released, followed by 3.2r1, which includes security fixes as well as a bunch of changes needed by porters for various architectures; well tested fixes, as well, for people using stable w/ stable-proposed-updates in their sources.list doing the testing). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
