Thanks.

All of these:
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian project/experimental/main
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian project/experimental/main/binary-i386
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian \
                            project/experimental/main/binary-$(ARCH)

give me this error when I run "apt-get update", where the experimental
line is line 8:
  E: Malformed line 8 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)

(The continuation characters are only for the email.)

# apt-get --version
apt 0.6.41 for linux i386 compiled on Sep  5 2005 23:04:11
Supported modules:
*Ver: Standard .deb
*Pkg:  Debian dpkg interface (Priority 30)
 S.L: 'deb' Standard Debian binary tree
 S.L: 'deb-src' Standard Debian source tree
 Idx: Debian Source Index
 Idx: Debian Package Index
 Idx: Debian dpkg status file

Any clue as to what I did wrong?  They look like syntactically 
valid entries to me.
