Nowhere did I ever say that I didn't like the way arch did things. In fact, I switched to Arch after 3 and a half years of running Slackware, precisely because I liked the way Arch did things. I have tried other distros, including Frugalware, but none of them convinced me to switch from Slackware. Arch did. It seems like my comment was taken the wrong way: as critissism. As if I were saying: "yeah, Arch really needs a conservative/stable branch". Not at all folks. It just sounded like a good idea, and not because I've had any stability problems with Arch, but maybe because that's what I was used to with Slackware. I didn't realize so many people were against the idea or of how much work it takes. I'm sticking to Arch because I love it's philosophy and the way it works.
