Well.. if we choose not to mix the two, we have to go with either -current, or
with 1.0. If we choose -current, we should choose a place to freeze it in,
or else, have to deal with the same problems the linux folks have (although
I'm not sure if they seem to notice it, since they have to deal with other
more pressing issues).
Anyway, if we're going to go with -current, we'll need to create proper dists,
and create simple ways for people to update. I really think having an /etc/version
or some such file, and a program which upgrades your system by going from
your version up one, etc, until achieveing the current version, would be useful...
ideas?
