Qing:

What about the possibility of going to 7.3-RELEASE? There is a lot 
that is good about 8.x, but when I build a production system I 
prefer to use a release that will have extended support. After all, 
it's awkward to build a production server that will need to be 
taken down for a major upgrade in only one year.

I know that 7.2-RELEASE had problems with routing and PPP too, but 
they were different ones. Have the 7-STABLE branch been patched 
adequately since that time?
