I'm not trying to disagree here but then what's the point of upgrading 
to Edgy if nothing further is going to be included?  At least from my 
point of view as an user that likes to have a more up to date system and 
things being as you said, what's the incentive to go to edgy if dapper 
is going to get the updates?  For someone like me it's almost a push to 
try other distributions instead of sticking with this one.  I hope that 
makes sense.
