Hi,
Of course, it is possible. Just change jessie to testing in you sources.list and apt-get update then apt-get dist-upgrade
Be careful: it may be long as many packages will be updated, and it may cause some little problems if you have a twickde system, but it should go fine, I tried on a new Jessie two days ago.
regards,

Is there a way to upgrade to stretch without having to totally reinstall my entire system? I'm working with Jessie now using the mate desktop environment. It isn't the testing release. If a total system install is required, I'll probably just stick with what I've got, especially since I've got my hardware synths working on it. Thanks.

This means that notably, on a Debian system running the gnome desktop, you just need to press super-alt-s. There is no need to click some "enable accessibility" checkbox and re-login any more. This will also better expose the accessibility stack to developers, so they can themselves notice issues with it. - The a11y bug tracker tag was added, which we can now use to track down the accessibility issues. - The accessibility::* debtags were added. One can now contribute them on debtags.debian.org. This will allow to do apt-cache searches with filtering packages which have explicitly been marked as being accessible. - Just as a reminder, packages upload & bugs will stop being sent to this list, but instead to pkg-a11y-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org , which you can subscribe to from https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-a11y-devel Samuel --
