Yeah, it's got some problems, but it's also got some new stuff in it. It
sounded like he wanted something to mess around with, to test things, and to me
a bleeding edge version would be as good or better for that. I don't think I'd
recommend it for someone setting up a production server, but for someone
playing the distro wars, why not?
