And missing lots of other fixes, documentation updates, etc.
IMO, there one good idea in the Debian approach: Treat security fixes sperately from any functional changes. No matter what improvements a new version brings, you almost always want to have a stable, secure environment you can build your next enhancement on. E.g. Debian packaging was broken at least twice in the FR 3.0.x series. I don't complain about that at all, but having an intermediate, (security-)bugfix-only release would give all the production sites out there a very clear and simple path to *quickly* cope with security issues.
Just a suggestion, though, and surely not a new idea.
Cheers, Martin
