It kills them all, then restarts them. Hmmmm...technically, I think it only 
restarts and kicks those that normally get kicked on startup, but not 
any that happen to have been running when the reload comes in. That's probably 
a minor bug.

Suggestions welcome. :) I've found source and target to be the shortest 
and most intuitive so far.

You'd be surprised at how often we get asked about old versions. So I'd 
like to have it documented in stone somewhere. I am curious as to just how 
far back we can go with targets only.

Okay. Some should be obvious from the mailing list threads.

I'm truly ambivalent. If you think github or something else would be 
better for milestones, have at it. Also (and this goes for anyone), 
let me know if you need a wiki or bugzilla account with privs.
