If you say so.  Testing stays more or less current and there's always
unstable.  OTOH, when you have a bunch of customers with Asterisk
servers who scream if their phones aren't working (because phones just
work), conservative and stable is good.

I have some automated scripts that keep everything up to date, and
having a bunch of different machines complicates things, so I stick to
Debian.
