Blah. Count the (currently active) RC bugs that came into testing when
it was spawned. Starting from Stable won't change much. In contrary,
using testing AS frozen is a bad idea, since Woody specific parts
(boot-floppies, base-config) went into Frozen without any or (any
sufficient) testing. Remember the base-config bug, or missing pppoeconf.
Many people burned lots of broken testing CD-ROMs. Why did all this
people use testing, when they looked for a distribution for daily use?
Correct, because of the fscking outdated _parts_ of Potato.
Such malheurs could be prevented if we realy _test_ the stuff in Testing
and move the section to working then (here: second part of the
new-style-freeze).

Too much patience indicates lazyness and weakness.
