Oh, no worries: I'm using it on my own risk. And when things occasionally 
break, I like to keep the pieces and play with them ;-)

I didn't say that it's the developers/packagers/anyones job to work around 
other people's foolishness. And I really appreciate José's warning not to 
upgrade ATM. It's just that I think that it would be wrong to assume that 
many/most sid users are reading this list.

Actually, it has been my everyday distribution since I started using linux. I 
wouldn't run it on any server, but I couldn't imagine my desktop running 
stable...
