Actually, I can't get 2.2.20 by default. I don't see it on stable, and last time I asked about it I was told to get it off "testing". Kindof bad since security listings strongly recommend updating production systems to 2.2.20. There is definitely some unfortunate imperfection in maintenance of stable, IMHO. Nevertheless, I'm still happy to put up with Debian's foibles, as it has a lot of nice features and I think the whole environment is very promising. I keep saying I hope to help out more some day, and I'm not there yet, but I hope to, and more development and QA help is what Debian really needs. I think the direction it is going, despite some glaring problems, is great. -- http://www.eskimo.com/~xeno [EMAIL PROTECTED] Physically I'm at: 5101 N. 45th St., Tacoma, WA, 98407-3717, U.S.A. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
