Then it's not even close to being broken and i don't see the need for |

Then you may need to rewrite the GLEP so it allows news items whenever |
| 19 |
something confuses users, not just the critical updates |

(e.g. incompatible mysql upgrades or the apache 2 config upgrade were |
| 21 |
used as examples) described in the GLEP. |
