I've been using the dmo packages since ~2006 and haven't had reason to
change is all.

I don't run unstable really, I run a testing system with unstable as a
second package source with lower priority, which gives a kind of
rolling-distro experience on Debian, again just something I've been
doing for years, I would especially recommend it unless you like that
sort of thing. Because of that I happen to also pull in the DMO
unstable branch too.

I'm pretty sure Christian has stable branches of this stuff too which
gets the same stuff once it seems okay -- I'm sure v35 will end up
there in due course.
