Downsides include: (1) Not something a newbie should be worrying about. (2) Bug reports from Testing+Unstable are less valuable. An alternative approach would be for packages to be retained in Testing for the benefit of the hundreds of thousands of desktop and laptop users who need to use Testing, and for the few members of the release team to use a filtered package list. The filtered package list would become the next Stable. This keeps Testing as it has historically been - more stable than Unstable and the best Debian for recent hardware. --Mike Bird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
