I'm runninga woody but it's straight Debian(installed directly woody).
It sounds like a good idea for me since I can provide real feedback if
necessary.I even installed the filerc pacakge and it's nice(the BSD
style of init runlevels in a file -similar to MacOSX one ,well the one
in
MacOSX sucks but that's beside the point here)
You may want to subscribe to debian-devel(about 150 messages/day)
and wait probably another week till the remainings of libc6 upgrade will
clear.
I found the storm ftp mirror (ftp.debian.ca)to be the most reliable
and fast one.It depends how you're routed by your ISP anyway.
