</I>>>>>><i> 1. we promise people an upgrade path from 2010.1/2
</I>>>>><i>
</I>>>>><i> They still have an upgrade path, and that wasn't raising an error.

</I>>>>>><i> 2. rpm/urpmi/rpmdrake does not read release notes
</I>>>>>><i> (same goes for many endusers)
</I>>>>><i>
</I>>>>><i> I disagree. THat's one of the most important reading when I go from

</I>>>>><i>
</I>>>>><i> It's much more easy to point people to a link and tell them to read, to
</I>>>>><i> solve their issue/question.
</I>>>>><i>
</I>>>>>><i> 3. we dont do exceptions for package(r)s
</I>>>>><i>
</I>>>>><i> Life is plenty of exceptions. And there are times when there are good
</I>>>>><i> reasons to do them. Creating a new distro is not a task you'll do next
</I>>>>><i> week again. Thinking to fix what was wrong in the previous one was IMO
</I>>>>><i> more important than ensuring that level of upgrade path for a couple of
</I>>>>><i> users of a package.
</I>>>>><i>
</I>>>>><i> I especially took time to discuss that point with Anne before taking
</I>any

</I>>>>><i> I'm a bit disappointed that no real discussion/vote/choice was made

</I>>>><i> couple of days before release may be a bit late.

As a reminder, release notes are on a wiki. You can add yourself your
contribution :)
