Re: Do you recomend to upgrade to Woody?



This kind of question is pretty hard to answer, since it depends very
intimately on your situation, what you use it for, your skill and comfort
level, etc.  Probably the answer is, it isn't a big deal either way. 
Maybe the best thing is to just try it; you can just downgrade back to
potato if the sky falls (not likely, btw). 

I switched from potato to woody on July 31st.  My system just has a ppp
(dialup) net connection; most all I use it for is developing personal
programs (mostly opengl and mysql stuff lately), checking email, and
reading slashdot; occasionally, I play Q3A.  The only problem I noticed
*at all* was that zsh had problems with autocompletion; my weekly 'apt-get
dist-upgrade' fixed that after a few weeks, and now my system seems at
least as stable/bugfree as potato was. 

Has anyone used woody for mission critical stuff?  I know some people run
woody-based web servers, eg, but I haven't.
