+I think this is an good idea.
+I think an other problem is the replacement of the proprietary drivers (I
+had a prob with nvidia96)
+
+Another point the the automatic for setting the repos.
+
+Normally I install first from dvd, reboot, add repos and the do the update.
+This seems not good for the upgrade.
+Because without updating during the upgrade there are no repos set (only
+cd-rom)
+
+The repos should be set independent from update during installation.
+
+What hapens with plf repos? (I think each normal system has them)
+
+The routine for setting the repos should look for plf and then activate
+tainted.
+
+Perhaps generate an automatic "urpmi -qa | mdv /plf)" to get a standard file
+for missing packages.
+So everyone can send it to mageia.org.
+
+In the evening a will test an upgrage of an komplete 2010.2 (with plf, some
+muldimedia stuff, proprietary GeForce) on an KDE x86_64 system.
+I think rather near by an enviroments of an simple user.
