SNIP
Update = minor updates to existing software, no big changes. Upgrade = major upgrade of the whole system, including new software versions, possibly significant changes in UI, needs a lot more time to do, etc. If worded correctly, it could act as a warning that it's an operation that takes time but also be an opportunity to highlight the new stuff that people may be interested in: get a few screenshots in, explain changes, a bit like what the installer does but before people actually commit to the upgrade.
Is not the problem that the two words are so similar and the average punter may not appreciate the huge difference in meaning in Ubuntu-speak.
Having said that I now need to think up some new terms as alternatives . . . -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
