No no, if you find out before you upgrade you preemptively change your |
7 |
config files and the old version breaks. If you find out after you |
8 |
upgrade you know why you're getting a load of warnings about '*' being |

deprecated. |

Experience has shown that news items work in delivering this kind of |
14 |
information to users whereas elog doesn't. elog is a one-shot thing |
15 |
that may or may not (usually the latter) actually get seen, whereas a |
16 |
news item stays around until the user reads it. |
