  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > If we don't put the /etc/sshd changes in the upgrade patch, at least
  > show what they are.  I may change my mind (or have it changed) about
  > this before release day.  A diff is worth a few dozen words... (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > judging from the lack of response, it sounds like we don't have any
  > packages with surprising or significant upgrade issues for 4.2. (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > Move the libexpat up in the list of issues people will see to "top"
  > position.  This is gonna hurt people.  Add some obnoxious <i></i> tags.
  > Also point out the often-given advice, building ports requires a complete
  > install, means "ALL X file sets". (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > sendmail.cf was missing from the list of files to copy over, but it was
  > (properly) in the sample cp commands.  Spotted by Frank Bax, who gets
  > lots of thanks for looking this over that closely.	(believe it or not,
  > I actually counted the files and the list...never said I could count)
  > (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        + upgrade42.patch

  > enter upgrade42.patch  (and there was much rejoicing!)
  > This makes upgrade42.html usable and ready for testing.
  > Add more on libexpat (yeah, bit me, so you get better docs).
  > Tested on (at least) four machines of mine, plus some testing and
  > examination by henning at .
  > Yes, that sudoers diff is wacky... all five of 'em.  If you have a
  > better idea, speak up. (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > Upgraders don't (in general) care what Xenocara is.  Zero reason to
  > mention it here.  It's X, that's what's important to the users.
  > Pointed out by deraadt at . (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > one again, I'm caught committing Comma Abuse.  This time, by Theo himself.
  > (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > Reorder/restructure document.
  > For unknown reasons, I split up the change alerts into something at the
  > top of the document and something else deep in the middle of the upgrade.
  > I think it made sense at the time, but it decayed into a mess.  Move all
  > advisories and warnings to the top.
  > Reorder slightly.
  > Add section about Alpha de(4) -> dc(4) change.
  > Add a #Xup target. (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.html                        

  > improve TOC to be actually semi-useful. (nick@)

  ~ upgrade42.patch                       

  > mikeb@ suggested putting the icky, ugly, and wacko sudoers part of the
  > diff at the end of the file, easier for people to figure out if it worked
  > as desired. (nick@)
