Excerpts from Philip Brown's message of Tue Nov 16 12:00:41 -0500 2010: > "The benefit " is supposed to be for the user, not the maintainer OR > the release manager. :)
Sebastian made a valid point in this regard. Other than a few extra http fetches, they typically won't notice (in any meaningful sense) whether they grab a few extra packages or not. What they _will_ notices is nicer transitions of packages as _maintainers_ have a lot more freedom to upgrade packages gradually instead of as a big lump. This should result in a better user experience overall.
