Before I answer that, here's a question. Why do we think it's a good idea to distribute upgrades as separate add-ons while we don't think it's okay to distribute such upgrades with bugfix releases? Doesn't this just increase the variability of site configurations, and hence version interaction hell? --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
