preparing upgrade

Hi, I am looking at the release notes to get comfortable with what's in them and to get a feeling for what I need to look at when upgrading our debian servers. Most of our servers were installed as Etch and then upgraded to Lenny. In my sources.list files I have lines like: deb http://ftp.nluug.
