The packages are quite good, but teTeX 3 has just been uploaded to
unstable, after being available in experimental for some time.

I have used those packages when they were still in experimental and they
are quite good, might I say. Of course, you should be prepared to live
with some problems, as they're still polishing the packages that are in
unstable and may soon be available in testing (which is what I actually
use).

OTOH, the new and improved packages that come with it are very good,
IMVHO.

Frank Küster (one of the main tetex developers for Debian) has put
backported versions of the tetex 3 packages for sarge. See:

Hope this helps, Rogério Brito.
