Fair point, Al... fair point... But would the same sort of issues not arise with a production one? I guess the rate of updates would be less, but surely there's no reason why somebody might not ignore the "updates available" icon for a couple of weeks to find that there's been 3 security patches or whatever and the one they originally were told they needed had been superceded? Or does the process work differently with alphas and betas? Sean -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
