I don't know, I think it makes a lot of sense.. Users who upgrade their kernels (don't upgrade if you don't want to) would be able to participate upstream with reports and confirmations. > These releases surely bring more than just "the newest fixes". It varies but sure, I think users should inform themselves about the new version (of any package!) before they actually upgrade it. //Peter
