Give us some credit. With the proper warnings (though I doubt any users
of ELinks are not aware of the differences between stable and
*experimental*) you could get a wider audience and if you also include
some info about bug reporting ("please include output of ... and ...)
you might get some good bug reports.
But what do I know, I'm just a user and not a DD ;)
