So, my workstation has been running Debian for a while, and my
sources.list has been pointed at the testing branch. With 3.0 becomming
stable recently, the branch that was testing is now stable. However, I
never changed my sources.list - I just figured I would leave it pointing
to testing. This leaves me with a few questions for the Debian pros out
there:

* How stable is the new testing branch? I know that unstable is just that
- unstable. However, the testing branch has always been very stable (for
as long as I've been using Debian anyway). Is that branch always very
stable (relatively speaking), or has it just been that way for the last
~12 months because the official stable branch was so old?

* When I ran apt-get dist-upgrade yesterday, there were no packages. The
same thing today resulted in 400+ upgraded packages to install. Obviously
the new "testing" branch has kicked in. Should I change my sources.list
file to the stable branch, or is it safe/stable to leave it pointing at
the testing branch?

Any thoughts?
