OK, this is Debian terminology related to Debian releases, not to the software it contains. I know, that this terminology is confusing for people outside of Debian. Sorry! Explanation: Every package (such as web.py) in Debian goes first to "unstable" which does not mean that web.py is unstable, but that it can be replaced by a new version without warning. After ten days (normally) the package goes to "testing". Again, the word "testing" is not related to the package itself. About every two years testing is frozen (no changes are allowed), and finally released as "stable". Again, "stable" means, that the package version will not be changed. A software in "stable" is not necessarily more stable than a package in "unstable"! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web.py" group.
