Re: debian unstable, stable enough?

If packages go from unstable to testing in just 10 days then it's not worth going to unstable, is it? I mean, you can live in the bleeding edge as well being in testing.

I can't really see a rationale for this. As far as I know, packages
normally migrate from unstable to testing in _10 days_ (unless testing
is frozen). Packages that don't are broken in some way or break
something else in some way. Now I know people do this, I guess they must
have a reason (a good reason for an unstable chroot is developing
packages for Debian).
