I disagree, we still have programs that are problematical with SP2, and

I understand this reduces the ainteance work. Also if you have auto
updates off, then the grace period is irrelavcent

Subject: Re: winxpsp1-updates.bat
On Sat, Aug 13, 2005 at 12:54:44AM +0200, Niels S. Richthof enlightened
us:
On 2005-04-12, the period of grace for the XP service pack 2 ended.
I think we should drop the winxpsp1-updates.bat (empty it, add the
SP2 and call winxpsp2-updates.bat).
Does anybody disagree?
Seems reasonable to me.
We no longer run any machines with SP1, but anybody who does probably
does it for a reason. Forcing people to upgrade seems rather
unfriendly. I'd suggest making it the responsibility of anybody who use
SP1 to keep the winxpsp1-updates.bat file current. That way the project
maintainers only need to keep accepting patches.
As for the grace period, I believe SP2 requires you to accept an EULA
before installing. That means that automatic updates will not install
it without user intervention.
