[expert] Where to go from here...

2003-11-06 Thread Trey Sizemore
I installed Mandrake 9.1 a while back and have used Cooker sources over 
time such that I pretty much have a 9.2 system running.

My question is...should I continue to use Cooker sources for updating or 
migrate over to 9.2 sources?  I want to keep the system rather cutting 
edge as far as packages go, but it has been inferred from others that 
Cooker is no longer the way to go.

Thanks.

If you've been running cooker between 9.1 and 9.2, what's to stop you
running cooker between 9.2 and Mandrake XP? joke cooker is unstable
and requests a good citizen effort to help with debugging. If you're
okay with those, go with cooker. If not, stay on 9.2 and wait for the
release, then debug that. cutting edge == buggy.

I know it's been frozen for a while, but is Cooker now open and getting 
newer packages added?

Oh, my gawd, yes - at an alarming rate.

My Changelog folder in the last couple days fills up faster than Cooker
or Expert, and those two are_not_ low traffic lists!

Yes. 

The 9.2 tree has also had an update to contrib directory as well.

Some of the mirrors aren't synced yet though. Like sunet.
