All,

Are there any opinions about whether 3.1 is ready for a production use?

I have seen the upgrade procedures in sysinst (and postinstall), and they
appear to be a great help to my upgrade plans.  If this will help
me as much as I hope, I will have the option to move to 3.1
quickly.

Any opinions on this?  I need a stable box (24x7) - I want it to
stay up for years without complaint.  My other NetBSD boxes on MacPPC
stay up a long time.  I just retired one that had gone 503 days since the
last reboot, and I think one of my 68K Mac IIci boxes went almost
3 years....  (The retiree is a Power Center 132 that has been in
production since Jan 2001)

For what I want - web and ftp server, shell users, ppp dial-up - will
3.1 (or 4.x) be a big improvement?

Does anyone know if serial works reliably in 3.1 with older
(PM7x00-class) machines?

Thanks,
