I agree with that. What enterprise environment wants is quick patching
and a quick rollback (in case of failure). Nobody asks you how good is
or how much you like your OS - system just has to work - that's all.
FreeBSD itself *is* very robust OS but not having this properties it is
still limited to be widely accepted in large production environments.

Yes you can, ask these guys: http://www.debian.org/. It's just a matter
of policy.
I dislike the long cycles between version updates in Debian but must
admit that the "stable" distributions indeed justify their name,
INCLUDING packages.
