watching the security-announce list is done by the admin/user of the system, maintaining a virtual package is done by busy debian developers who have too much to do as it is. Those who choose to run unstable choose to take upon themselves more responsibility/inconvenience, if they are unwilling to bear that burden they should not run unstable. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
