Hi MPT, thank you for the update :
'2012-09-05: 376 applications are published in MyApps and 36 in Extras. So over 10% of Ubuntu applications now be updated without upgrading the OS.' So we have now have 10% of applications that can be updated, but more importantly we still have 90 % that can't. And for these we still need to move from a Canonical advocated version of Ubuntu (LTS release) to a testing release in essence. From the blue print of MyApps I understand this will not include applications in the main archives. Since these are the applications most often installed then this is not really of much use to a typical desktop user. Do you think that it will ever be possible to stay on an LTS release of Ubuntu but have up to date software without compiling it yourself of using a possibly insecure PPA?
