There are about 5 flag days per year, at most.  Generally more like
2-3 or fewer.  One problem is that going from 2.2.5 -> current is that
2.2.x was branched years ago so there is much accumulated gunk, in
some cases, that make it seem big.  I'm not going to bother with flag
days before the /etc/pam.conf.  If someone has a good summary and
wants to send it to me for inclusion, then feel free.

I'll start the UPDATING file, try to keep it up to date and see how to
goes.  If it works, then people that said it wouldn't be kept up to
date will be right.  Otherwise I'll be the first to admit that I was
wrong and it can't be kept up to date.

Any objection to my trying to do this?
