Re: Release statusus



Hi Colin,

	so, sumarizing for my situation: it's no use tracking a
unstable 'release' because it just isn't that: a release, and never 
will be. It's stabiblity level will vary over time, (for instance 
tomorrow somebody might decide to drop linux 2.6.0-test6 in unstable) 
while the testing release's stability will increase untill it's 
mature enough to become a stable release. (After which testing will
fall back again, I presume, to testing's level of stability.)

	Then why not take the logical step, pick a kernel release 
(or combination of linux/hurd/*bsd releases), put a name on it, 
put it in testing and let it grow to a stable release? This name
sid just confuses things, in my humble opinion.

Sincerely,

Jan.
