As I'm sure many here will remember, whenever a new "point release" of Statler came out, the most reliable upgrade path was, unfortunately, a clean install. Has anyone heard anything about Corenominal developing a more painless upgrade path for getting from Statler to Waldorf? (Perhaps a script?)Looks like someone's recently tried such an upgrade through editing sou
I currently run Statler on my laptop, but now I'm looking to install Crunchbang on my desktop. I was wondering whether I should install Statler or the latest beta on my desktop. If I install Statler, how easy will updating to Waldorf be in the future? I've never done an upgrade beyond just updating packages before. Will the move to Waldorf be simple as that?

Hello everyone. I am Eduardo, a new Ubuntu refugee that's happily turning to Crunchbang. :)While not any admin by far, I have some Debian experience from long years ago using testing, and no trouble making some tweaks here and there.
