Irrelevant. The discussion up to this point had little to nothing to do with MS Windows. It was a complaint about the lack of security support in testing, and an argument for the "proven stability" of testing was the uptime of a system. Then a conclusion was drawn from this uptime that the release was "stable" and therefore in dire need of support from the security team. I'm simply pointing out that uptime is a by product of stability, but not necessarily a valid (or even useful) indicator of it presence. -- Jamin W.
