Hi all, Hi Farran!  (my first post to the mailing list, be gentle)

I only upgrade via a fresh install from one LTS to another.... Im on
Hardy Heron 8.0.4.2, and previously on Dapper Drake.... I like
stability!  

Besides, I use Fluxbox with mainly text/console apps, so the latest
and greatest doesn't really bother me...

Sometimes it is better to wait and see how a new distro works out and
wait for the bugs to be ironed out....especially if you are on your
main and/or only desktop.
