Hi, Greg!

Are you saying that you do that regularly even if you don't have an
issue that needs fixing?  How frequent is "quite often?"  Once a week?

I run the stable CVS branch too, and I also use your etcmanage tool
and its BUILD-NetBSD and INSTALL-NetBSD programs.  (They work great,
by the way!)  However, I definitely do *not* just "cvs update" and
build, install, and reboot often.  I only update when there's a security
advisory or a bug fix I need.  I depend on security advisories to tell
me when I should update.  If security advisories are not being generated
in a timely manner, then that would be a real concern for me.

Lewis
