Do you mean after a month of burn-in?  Or are there new projects coming
to fruition then, maybe a release of some sort? We generally give them 1 month out
in staging, 2 months as a backup fail over, then move them to primary.
Currently, the plan is to run the web servers as debian 32 with a biarch
chroot only for iptables, the database servers as debian 32 with a biarch chroot 
for iptables and a pure64 chroot running postgresql.  I've gotten both of these up 
over the weekend and initial regression tests are going smoothly.
