I appreciated Todd's approach with Puppet when that went from 0.25 to
2.6. Put it in updates-testing, and set the karma threshold really
high (in that case, 10). It's clear to me as a sysadmin that 2.6 is
coming down the line at some point, so I have an easy way to test when
it's convenient to me, and I can provide feedback in Bodhi. Can we
take that approach with other packages?
