I know. And it could be that I'm just grumpy that I'm losing the great thing Ubuntu gave me: essentially 6 months of frozen Debian Unstable.
Now we might get 18 months of frozen Unstable along with a Testing/Unstable-like rolling thing. Except for the regular-guy-friendly installer, what will Ubuntu really add over Debian anymore then?
What's kept me on Ubuntu for 6 years was that it gave me exactly what I wanted: relatively frequent, but frozen snapshots of Sid! But then again, if I'm in a small minority thinking like this, I won't complain :-)
