Except for Sarge. There was a three-year interval between "Potato" and 
"Sarge" stable releases, so toward the end of the process server users 
had to migrate to then-testing Sarge to be able to use modern versions 
of software.

At approximately the same time Ubuntu was started, with one of 
distinctions from Debian being stable releases twice a year.
