  running testing is pretty much like running a rolling release.
except of course, when it is frozen at times.

  because i've also got a different stable partition which is
only updated after point releases i don't mind risking the
once in a while snafu that i have to work through.

  my morning routine is to watch what comes through in the
package updates and set some aside if i think they might be
too intrusive and i'm in the middle of something else.

  this is more than most people probably want to do but i
don't mind it - it keeps me in tune with what is changing.  :)
