IMHO I would definitely *not* recommend people using IRC (except maybe
the #slug channel, which I only just found out about). It probably took
me an extra 3 years to learn to use linux because of the attitudes of
linux users on IRC. I can give you a list of 5 names right now off the
top of my head
http://www.aboutdebian.com/packages.htm
If you scroll down about half way it runs through the procedure of
updating from 2.2 to 3.0. Was going to paste it, but it's a little long
and simplified.
