I'm not 100% sure about the etymology, but I think you can see it like Yeechang adding some jewels (bijoux in french) to the standard mythtv packages ATrpms provides. Traditionally these were similar or the same like Jean-Yves Avenard's patchset for Ubuntu, I'm not sure how similar the patchesets are in 0.23. E.g. the packages are 0.23-fixes as shipped in the vanilla ATrpms packages with many added patches that haven't made it into stable yet, but which many people find useful. The upgrade path from non-bijou to bijou is 100% safe, for the other direction I'd better let Yeechang explain (I think it is safe as well). Many users have reported very good experiences with the bijou releases but occasionaly a patch may need to be revisited or removed (this just happened like once or twice in 1.5 years). -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
