the suggestion I had made at fudcon went something like this:
1. all packages being put in as updates would need to be marked as per
the type of update. the default is 'trivial'. Options might include: new
pkg, trivial, feature, bugfix, security
2. We would issue security updates whenever they happened. Issue bugfix
updates once every 2 weeks. Everything else once a month.
How about we keep updates and updates-testing more like they are and add
another repo like updates-stable that follows your policy and is the
only updates repo enabled by default.
