Re: testing 这个名字太误事了

同意刘工的看法。
当我是一个debian新人的时候，只会用stable，原因同刘工所说一模一样——
“一些新用户， 看到testing 就发怵， 然后就去用stable版， 造成大家都认为
debian软件老旧。”
后来慢慢的熟悉了debian之后，才慢慢的用到testing和unstable。根据我的使用体验，如果不需要24x7小时的运行，一上来就用testing完全没有问题，对于以桌面应用为主的用户来说，unstable也是可以接受的。而原来的版本定义显然过于严格了。

Currently there are three versions of Debian GNU/Linux:

release 5.0, a.k.a. the `stable' distribution or lenny

This is stable and well tested software, it changes if major security or usability fixes are incorporated.

the `testing' distribution, currently called squeeze

This is where packages that will be released as the next `stable' are placed; they've had some testing in unstable but they may not be completely fit for release yet. This distribution is updated more often than `stable', but not more often than `unstable'.

the `unstable' distribution

This is the version currently under development; it is updated continuously. You can retrieve packages from the `unstable' archive on any Debian FTP site and use them to upgrade your system at any time, but you may not expect the system to be as usable or as stable as before - that's why it's called `unstable'!

我觉得可以在某些   “显著”    的位置（或者不那么官方的地方），将各种版本的重新定义一下，最主要的，还是要让新人用户能很容易的知道老鸟们的建议

你当然可以这么看， 没有问题， 第一次接触debian的人可不这么看，


如果说下一次的正式版的别名， 有不可持续。 没有持续的宣传效果。


其实就是这几个名字在争抢用户 :  lenny, squeeze, testing,sid,stable
这几个名字里面 testing 很不给力。
