Hi Adrian, I don't have strong knowledge about "pure" debian, until now I used Ubuntu and RH-based systems... but I knew that in production systems the unstable/testing isn't a good choice because of possible different bugs due to not much testing of the new packages. All people tell me that is a risk using a debian unstable... (also this faq http://wooledge.org/~greg/sidfaq.html). My question is: can I use a debian unstable in production "mission- critical" telephony systems? Now, with these statements, my choice is: use a debian unstable or use an ubuntu system without the possibility to upgrade mediaproxy (and in future, other ag-projects softwares)... How other people keep their not-debian systems updated?
