One of the things I have been doing it cycling through 4 systems
upgrading the userland and kernel. I have a script setup such that I
capture everything from the cvsup log to build and installs. During
the transition between 4.1.1-stable and 4.2-stable, one of this
systems was updated everyday. It isn't a QA cycle that I experienced
in the commercial world associated with the US Nuclear Regulatory
Commission but it did insure that my setups work. If someone popps up
on -stable and says that the "Buildworld is failing" for 4-stable, it
is really easy to fire off that script and find out if it is. I have
one running at this time.
