Language please. I specifically indicated that it was merely a _friendly_ 
suggestion. :-) Impressed with your work and others' work to provide Debian 
Stable and I'm also aware of shiny new toy syndrome. :-)  For server, I would 
use stable! But for desktop and development, I like the latest available as 
it's constantly improved, and with Wayland support, this is especially 
important. It's not the days of decades of X11 and minor updates to it. We're 
in an important transition phase to a new desktop environment platform.
 
I am considering using unstable, and would be happy to provide feedback on any 
findings. If someone could point me to the best contact for such feedback, so 
that I may be helpful, I would be grateful. (Introduce myself: I'm particularly 
focused on Rust now, but I have a background in kernels and C/C++/C# [30 yrs 
exp.]. I also have BSEE + post-grad MS courses).
 
Sincerely,
Greg McPherran
