O.K., I am slightly confused here - I thought that tracking 4.2 stable
just gives me bug fixes to 4.2, yet I am starting to get the impression that
if I continue cvsupping regularly I will actually end up with 4.3 by the
time it is released ? I was under the impression that tracking -stable did
not attempt to add any new features, but instead simplt added bug fixes to
the last release...

Anybody point me in the direction of a concise explanation at all ?
