I wasn't saying they have to read all of them. Any ONE of them would suffice to clue them in about the big changes to X between Debian 2.0 and 2.1. I was wondering where else I need to place announcements so that they won't escape people's attention. In the specific case of X, replace the "*" with "xfree86-common" in items 3 and 4 above. -- G.
