    I don't understand why it takes Debian so long to release! For the most part upgrading to Debian testing is just as Stable as Woody. So why haven't they released it??

    Hey shouldn't this be posted in 3 days? I mean, if we all RTFA'd:

    "On August 16th, the Debian Project will celebrate its 10th birthday with several parties around the globe. The Debian Project was officially founded by Ian Murdock on August 16th, 1993. At that time, the whole concept of a "distribution" of GNU/Linux was new. Ian intended Debian to be a distribution which would be made openly, in the spirit of Linux and GNU. The creation of Debian was sponsored by the FSF's GNU project for one year."

    In the first sentence it tells us we're all wrong for celebrating today...
