You've got to be kidding me. I've run sid for about five years now and no way
in hell would I even think of considering using it for a production system.
This is the whole point of stable.
If you think testing or unstable is suitable for production systems you are
one of
1. an idiot
2. have very limited needs/no experience
3. talking out of your ass
4. have no concept of what it means to be responsible for others' work
I am getting really sick of people pushing sid for production use. Please stop
doing it. I don't really care if it meets your needs. If it does, you are a
tiny minority; your experience with it in this capacity is anecdotal, and
none of it is likely to have any bearing on anyone else's needs.
