I've sent several call for helps on my blog and debian-devel ; I also
did a BoF at Debconf 9, where the idea of "nagging" was suggested.

Please note that the nag-on-upgrade facility won't be triggered on
stable systems, except after a dist-upgrade from lenny to squeeze.

The idea is also to get unstable users to actually report problems and
help improve what will end up in stable.
