No no, if you find out before you upgrade you preemptively change your
config files and the old version breaks. If you find out after you
upgrade you know why you're getting a load of warnings about '*' being

Experience has shown that news items work in delivering this kind of
information to users whereas elog doesn't. elog is a one-shot thing
that may or may not (usually the latter) actually get seen, whereas a
news item stays around until the user reads it.
