I am still using Daryna. Once I install a linux distro I see no reason for upgrading to a newer one. The problem is that I don't have a separate Home folder and I will loose all my settings and precious dataif I keep on updating.
For those people thinking of trying Mint: Go ahead, it's an awesome distribution and deserves a lot of respect.

Looks like they've added useability improvements over Ubuntu... like "GUFW" the GNOME frontend for the Uncomplicated FireWall It should appear in the next release of Ubuntu I'm sure...

I don't think they are offering an upgrade option from Daryna to Felicia. It's just from Linux Mint 5( That's Ellysa) to 6.
