Hi,

I certainly understand the stable model. However, if I may suggest considering a cadence option similar to Ubuntu and Fedora that provide an official release every 6 months or so.

I prefer more up-to-date kernels and packages (without requiring backports).

Simply a friendly suggestion. I like Debian and your minimal installation options such as mini.iso and netinst. (I originally developed web engine on Debian in 2014).

Have Great Day,

Greg McPherran
