Yes, testing, aka Sarge. Libranet 2.8 is Sarge-based, and it works fine. The 
main drawback is Sarge security updates are a lot slower than stable (Woody). 
However Libranet issues security patches swiftly. I use plain-vanilla Woody 
for servers, and Libranet for desktop systems. 

Unstable (Sid) usually works fine, but when it blows up, it's spectacular.
