Switch to preventFolks,

Eric's comment below brings up a question that I have been fighting with
for weeks now. I have been considering switching to the stable grimore,
just for sanity's sake. My quandry is that I like being cutting edge,
but perhaps not this sharp. I've been using devel since b4 there was
SourceMage (so I guess b4 there was a devel). I have seen a lot of
messed up boxes in postings lately, but mostly due to .8 and people
trying to do both major upgrades at once.

My concerns are thus:

1. I run tcp/ip servers and am concerned about timely security fixes,
Does this mean the devel is not for me or should I just use staable and
manually adjust the spells that concern me to the latest numbers?

2. Should I do this b4 1.0? I am not on .8 yet.

3. I am still using gcc 2.95. Should I make the transition to 3.2 first?

Still I like having the best immediately, but I don;t want my work day
stopped due to a broken box. However, I have had no major problems since
I started this late last year and if I did have a problem with a spell I
can always dispel it back to a previous version right? And I back-up my
sytem b4 every update..

Thoughts and advice please...


Regards and thanx for the best distro ever!
