This is exactly the attitude that I disagree with. The changes between 2.0 and 2.0r1 are significant (fixes to security problems!). Having to download the changed packages, even if they are few, certainly _is_ a real hardship. Not everyone is on the Internet. However, I'm not going to argue the point further. This is a value decision, not a technical one, and I'm not willing to spend the effort to change everyone else's values to be correct. However, I don't want anyone to be able to say there is a consensus, when there is not.
