There are very few packages from unstable, mostly related to the nvidia proprietary drivers and the related x.org video drivers. And that's because I explicitly asked for those. However, there are a few packages where the repository is "now" (a=now comes up for a dozen or so packages). I've been in debian for a while, and I have never heard of a "now" repository, so where are these coming from? I can understand in the case of a few packages I've gotten from non-standard repositories (opera, for instance) that 'now' might be the best choice, but I know from experience that I shouldn't have as many packages with the "now" as a source repository as I seem to have. I can attach my "nowlist" for perusal And my sources.list. For now :) what are my upgrade roadmaps for those particular files?
