Your decision whether you upload into Debian experimental or unstable

can request syncing packages from experimental into Ubuntu, but the
package will still land in Ubuntu's new queue and require verification.
You can always provide backports/ppa/etc regardless of the package
status in the archive.
Given above, unstable or experimental?
I'm still not sure why one would want to use experimental instead of
unstable. It seems like it's just one more hoop people have to jump
through ( adding one more entry to sources.list ) to use the package.
I'm not necessarily opposed to it, I just don't see the benefit.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't experimental for testing a one off
hack you want a few specific people to try, but you know it would cause
breakage for other users and so would not be appropriate for unstable?
If that's the case, then I'd say unstable is the place to go.
