Since I always expect unexpected things to happen when upgrading, I
would rather go directly to Emacs 24 when its more or less stable
already - and thats what it seems to be.

I might use the opportunity to change from 32bit to 64bit, from Ubuntu
to Arch Linux (which looks good) and from Gnome to Stump-WM. That looks
like a nice combination to me.
