It's always both frustrating and amusing to see how many people haven't understood the release policy in Debian yet.
Maybe someone should go ahead and rename stable, testing and unstable into 'debian-enterprise', 'debian-home_and_office' and 'debian_development-release' :).
But honestly, people should never run stable on their home machines or stop complaining. Debian stable remains unchanged - besides security fixes and *some* updates - until a new version of stable is released.
