Do you not see this as a *huge* problem ?
This means even fewer testers, again !



This weekend I replaced a server, moved it from 6.4-STABLE to
8.3-PRERELEASE.

Hell, as far as I'm concerned it could have stayed on 6.4-STABLE to be
honest, but I needed to replace the hardware which was getting old.
