From http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/11/msg00004.html <quote> It is our goal to have full security support for testing available shortly after the start of the hard freeze. Until then, we can't recommend upgrading systems to etch on the public Internet, but we will welcome any testing help you can provide. </quote> (That's from a mail from our release managers for etch.) Johannes NB: My etch box is also connected to the internet, I use a firewall though and am a bit careful of what I do regarding security. I wouldn't blindly recommend 'testing' to anyone who is new to Debian and/or Linux, though. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
