Almost two months of not installing an available security patch, for both FreeBSD and linux.org...

I think this is an excellent moment to ask: How could community and tools support admins more to prevent scenarios like these?

Should there be automated updates for all internet-facing software? Maybe some split standard, so non-breaking-changes are installed automatically while breaking changes are held back for manual approval?

Should we (as in FLOSS) introduce community-visible labels to denote availability for routine things as well as mental workload?

in my experience, it is always the trust but verify model.
