Thanks for answer. But that wasn't exacly what I was asking for ;)
I know that almost everything is now up-to-date in Debian. I know that it
wasn't easy and needed a lot of work to make it policy compliant.
I would like to focus on Debian native tools which makes users life easier.
Which tasks could be achieved much easier in sarge than woody?
As an example I can say about module-assistant. It's great and makes
modules compilation piece of cake ;)
Any other similar useful additions?
