Hmmmmm. That indeed could "bite" us. I remember that the CD and N RC releases
for 4.0 caught lots of stuff in the install process. Maybe that would be less
now since we're not doing a ".0" release, but still--if it's possible to roll
an ISO, I know I for one would download/burn/install/give-feedback. I sure
others would too ....
