[expert] pain in the arse?

[SIR admin]

it's interesting that folks are claiming that 7.1 worked better than 7.2.
granted bugs are found...but shouldn't a later release be MORE stable, not
LESS?  good point about some folks just have to get work DONE.  :P

i thought that stable versions are even numbered after the decimal, and
production was odd numbered after the decimal.  i just thought i read that
somewhere.

while i'm here...does anyone know how i can install the program that queries
servers for updates.  it's usually in drakconf, but with high security
settings, it's not.

it'd save me a BUNDLE of time.

thanks!
