Yes; sounds great.  :-)  I have no idea whose job it is to create the
upgrade-i386 directory (ftp.debian.org, I guess), but please clone and
assign to the appropriate person.

Herbert's job, then, is to upload the appropriate packages to that
directory; the RM's job is to make sure it's mentioned prominently in
the release notes.  And someone has to create the README, but that
shouldn't be much of a job.  ("You must upgrade to these packages, and
reboot with the new kernel, before installing sarge".)

Remember to tell Karolina, who opened the bug in the first place, when
it's all done.  :-)

Glad this is getting dealt with!
