This is intended to supplement the existing upgrade reports, not be a sole source of upgrade info for etch. Since security support is supposed to be in place since December allowing users to upgrade, the larger question is whether any recent freeze exceptions have impacted the upgrade process. Hmm, Andi, did we ever send an announcement to debian-user welcoming people to upgrade? If not, we should do that now rather than waiting for the d-i release, which doesn't have much bearing on upgrades anyway. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
