Very good point, this is a decisive argument to me.

</I>
Ok for me provided we put in place the necessary processes to avoid upgrade
problems (Youri::Submit::Test::Precedence for example).
><i>
</I>><i> Now, using 0 prevent us from having a simple way of seeing what
</I>><i> prerelease we ship and that should be updated to latest stable ( as this
</I>><i> seems to me quite desirable ).
</I>
Good point too.

</I>><i> This is also inconsistent with the practice we had of backporting from
</I>><i> cooker ( as the initial goal at Mandriva was to have 0 modifications
</I>><i> from cooker to backports to reduce the load ). And if we ship something
</I>><i> in update and in backports, we would have the same packages with 2
</I>><i> different releases, and that doesn't seems a good idea.
</I>
Worse, the backport would be preferred to the update :/
You should have said all this right from the start rather than assuming that
we would have all these elements in mind :)
