Thank you. That makes everything quite clear. ;-)
I guess my next, and hopefully last, question is "how should I prepare
for this?".
I have been quite pleased with the results of turning on the automatic
nightly yum update on my CentOS machines. (I do not do this on my Fedora
servers.)
However, I am nervous about autoupdating during this possibly more
turbulent period. I guess an announcement will go out that 4.3 is
coming and I can turn off autoupdates at that time?
Looking at the dates in the CentOS 4.2 main repo, it looks like the
updates occurred in three batches at 7 day intervals. But I'm not sure
I can trust those dates to be a representation of what actually happened
when.
Since I'm a CentOS newbie and no one else seems to be all that worried,
I'm thinking that I might be making a big fuss over nothing. (And
please do tell me if I am.)
I have clients that would be calling me if they have problems, but I'm
not running any nuclear power plants or anything.
Anyway, thanks for making this distro possible.
-Steve
