</I>><i> However, changing to a "light" rolling distro would force other users, who
</I>><i> don't necessarily want these updates (or, don't want to pay for all the
</I>><i> bandwidth for these updates, because they are happy with the version they
</I>><i> have) to download them.
</I>><i>
</I>>><i> Other distros are now trying this model, only for browsers as I now.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> We can run a poll for select what are the programs in that list, and then
</I>>><i> the devel team must tell us what programs can be upgraded due technical
</I>>><i> reasons and what programs can't do.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> My own favourites list is:
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Openoffice (LibreOficce?)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> So, you want to force everyone to download 300MB of packages, because you want
</I>><i> a few new features?
</I>><i>

We were just reminded in another thread that many users are still using
dial-up services. I think we should also keep this in mind. It would be
nice to know, even if you are just speaking in terms of your knowledge
of your country, if dial-up service are prevalent in your country.
The update or do a rolling update may have a huge impact on these users.
In Canada, dial-up is still used but high speed hookup is the norm.
