Debian Aims For September Release Date

    it's pretty delightful to only have to make sure your apt sources are good and include the security patches

    Yeah, because it's so difficult to have security.debian.org in your sources list, and it's not like it gets put in there for you when you install...oh wait...it does that? Imagine that.

    There's no need to apt-get update/upgrade "every night" if you're on the security mailing list...which any competent Debian admin would be anyway
