I try to line up 11.4 early as I think we need to start discussions around
milestones early as there are quite some holidays ahead in our way - so if
you have suggestions to make or plain feedback to give, feel free to put it
in nice words ;)

I'm not that sure what you want to hear here ;)

I think we should spend more time on testing "upgrading the system"
(such as from 11.2 to 11.3, or from 11.3 to 11.4). I'm upgraded from
11.2 to 11.3 yesterday using yast and encountered some issues.

1/ gconftool is still ugly slow (bnc#555827).

2/ automatic rebooting after the basic upgrade did not work, at one
point I have had to press the power button.

3/ After all the upgrading was done, I have had to reboot on my own
again, because the keyboard did not work as expected (I guess "init 1"
and "init 5" would have done the trick, too).

4/ For consistency reasons, yast messages need some adjustments
(s/update/upgrade/) to match the terminology used by zypper...

Since all this was thus slow (see 1/), I did not have the time to write
proper bug reports.

Thus my suggestion is to spend more time on testing the system upgrade
process.
