kept back packages- how to proceed

[Pollywog <pollywog@shadypond.com>]

I did 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get' upgrade and I got the kept back list
below.  What is the best course of action?  Would it be to do dist-upgrade or
wait for the potato CDROM (a few months away)?

thanks 

lilypad:/etc/apt# apt-get upgrade
