Re: [d-security] script for security update notification

[Christian Jaeger <christian.jaeger@sl.ethz.ch>]

Finally someone asking about what I'm having in mind since i'm using 
Woody...:) - namely a helper app that allows you to
1. let your production machines run without having to do risky 
upgrades just to be sure that you won't miss security updates.
2. favourably also check the current unstable changelogs so that you 
will not be "burned" because of the ~2 week delay in woody.

Would the idea be to then provide those entries on a central public 
server? That would sound cool. What do you mean with 'would have to 
be run from katie'?
