[TriLUG] Debian Sid/Unstable

[Matias D'Ambrosio]

I run testing+unstable, it's very easy to mix them. I installed a
couple of things I really care about from sid, the rest is from
testing so it just works. You might even want to sprinkle some
Experimental (that's an incomplete set of packages you can use on top
of sid or testing).

You could run your own testing/sid mirror and make sure all your
systems use that, by the way.
