Well. The general consensus would be to keep Hoary on the server unless
you have a good reason to upgrade (availability of a critical package
update etc). We had to upgrade to Breezy RC1 because of a kernel /
initrd-tools problem on Hoary - and have henceforth upgraded through
apt-get dist-upgrade to Breezy release.

But - we did to the upgrade by simply replacing hoary with breezy (:s
%/hoary/breezy/g in vi) in /etc/apt/sources.list. And it worked. I think
the problems people have experienced are centered around gnome-apps and
things such as OpenOffice.
