Comment 8 for bug 349066

Steve,
You're right, a seporate program might be too much. I believe the update program should warn people to gather their wep keys and other network authentication because it will be lost in the upgrade.

Basically, I think the pop-up note saying :hey, do you want to do a dist-upgrade?.. it should just say that a dist-upgrade is available, and a link to the the release notes, the release notes should say how to start the upgrade, because it implies that the person spent the time to read the important notes.

I believe your release notes are ok.

  I know that something needs to be done to avoid stranding the user.

\ This Kubuntu KDE and network manager are way cool and well done, This is just a severe case of putting a hole infront of the user and removing the guard rail so it's easy for them to make a bridge, but the sign doesn't say where to get the bridge... (there is a small note to the documents that say where the bridge is...)

I knew I could have problems when upgrading, so I had methods to stay online... I'm still going for computing safety.
