You're assuming that the new versions don't introduce new bugs. I think that is overly optimistic. As an example I have been completely unable to build a correctly working metacity on alpha from the development series since May. There are bound to be things that need fixing. Having said that I sure would hope that 2.4 makes it into the next release. It IS better. Cheers, Jens
