> Kind of a drawback if the latest stable is 'too old'.
You can selectively upgrade only packages which you need to then use
'stable' for the rest of them. Dependencies will be taken care of so you
can mix and match stable and unstable to some degree of success.
There also have been several 'unofficial' potato upgrades. The best one I
used was to get kde under potato.
> Any idea how soon woody will be released? - i know "when its ready".
Parts of woody are all ready frozen. Unlike other distros, debian is very
fine grained in upgrades. I feel that woody is stable enough to use right
now. And it's just getting more stable all the time.
Check for outstanding bugs in woody before you do a dist-upgrade if
this is your first time, though.
