*I* use Sarge.  

But as Monique said, it's going to get *less* stable as the release
date approaches.  And it is IMPOSSIBLE to use Woody on a new server
now, because it doesn't support current hardware.  

If you suggest using Sarge on a server, I point out that it doesn't
get rapid security updates.
