I bit the bullet (on my laptop, not on the servers) and installed hipster
last Thursday.

it installed easily enough, but some notes.

1) the update takes up more than 5Gb extra disk space.
2) flash player doesn't play videos from bbc.co.uk or youtube (haven't
tried many others)

everything else seems to work well.

I have my "update log" if anyone wants to see what changed.
