I'm running Debian stable on about a dozen servers - everything is easy.
Updates are painless.

We've solved some of the "stable != new features" by adding things like
mysql from backports.org ...
deb http://www.ecology.uni-kiel.de/mirrors/debian/backports.org/debian
woody mysql-dfsg

Servers aren't supposed to be "interesting", they're supposed to be
"reliable". :-)
