Removing experimental means that there is no place to pout in packages which are "probably broken, but really interested persons should please test". There would be no way of distinguishing those from "new packages, ought to be OK, please test" stuff. Prevent auto up0dating, means that, along with the above change, unstable becomes too annoying to run. With people no longer running unstable, bugs do not get caught. Instead, bugs propogate to testing. So, effectively, you have removed testing (and relabled unstable as testing). With no real bug triage before testing, we are back to the old release dilemma: the distribution we release from has lots of bugg packages. Welcome back to 1/2 year long freezes. Why one earth would w3e want to regress to the days before testing? manoj -- Quick, sing me the BUDAPEST NATIONAL ANTHEM!!
