I think this is the plan. You'll have to ask him for specifics; I think the plan incorporates doing one architecture at a time. > What will that do to auric's disc space and our network traffic? > This doesn't sound like a plan, it sounds like the absence of a > plan. It is a strategy that requires a minimum of manual intervention, so I think it is a good strategy - much better than requiring every single maintainer of each of the 1000 packages to act in a coordinated way, and ending up with an infrastructure that is incompatible to anybody else's gcc 3.2 applications. If temporary breakage of some applications is acceptable, you can spread this over a couple of days, by tsorting the 1000 packages. Regards, Martin
