	Yeah, I was mainly referring to post release too, although you could
probably figure out something whereby the mass-update gets a lot of
QA-ing before being pushed.

	I'd be all for it, but it would be a rather large amount of work given
the number packages involved and the relative little gain for doing it.
I guess its something that people could easily help out with so once we
have an external CVS we could certainly try and figure it out.

Cheers,
Mark.
