<PRE>Le dimanche 24 octobre 2010 &#224; 11:10 +0300, P. Christeas a &#233;crit :

&gt;<i> Stability, IMHO, is not what Debian does: take 7 versions back and call them 
</I>&gt;<i> &quot;stable&quot;. It is the result of software quality procedures, objective choices 
</I>&gt;<i> when deciding about code merges, &quot;software engineering&quot; when developing 
</I>&gt;<i> something.
</I>
What Debian offer is stability at the distribution level, in the sense
&quot;the software do not change&quot;, not really stability on software level, ie
what most people understand as &quot;the software do not crash&quot;. I would
better call this a robust software than a stable one, due to the
confusion above.
