Well, I run unstable portage here and it seems stable and reliable to |
| 18 |
me. I know they are adding things and fixing things pretty regular but |
| 19 |
most packages do that anyway and a lot of them are marked as stable. |

I read somewhere that the reason some of the later versions of portage |
| 22 |
are not stable is not because the new ones are not ready but because |
| 23 |
they want more testing of the old versions. Not sure why that is tho. |
