Our stable releases will be every six months. During that time, we'll
have a development branch running, which you can 'dogfood'. This will
actually *be* sid (plus our changes) until it's frozen.

All of Debian main is available in our 'universe' component, unless
specific packages don't build. Our goal is to never require external
repositories - everything will live in our... universe. :-)
