Re: woody to testing

[mtsouk@freemail.gr]

Hi and thanks for answering.

I know that the main problem of testing is the bugs :-)
What I would like to know is how many bugs does testing have?
I mean, are the bugs so many that you cannot work at all with debian
testing?
I do not need any special applications: Just C/C++ development tools,
KDE3 and its apps, kdeveloper, anjuta, perl, XFree, etc.
What kind of applications have most of the stability problems?

As I previously said, the reason that I need KDE3 is the Greek support
that is has which, I think, is better than the other XWindows managers.

TIA,
Mihalis.
