I'm not opposed to either idea, but I'm not sure how we'd define the experimental vs production distinction. Some dists, especially source-based ones like Sabotage, lack the selection of packages users might expect from a production desktop or server distro, but they can still be very suitable for production use in embedded or in small or "more traditional" servers without all kinds of modern bloat. Maybe it would make sense to suggest a few comparable well-known distros for each one ("Debian-like", "Gentoo-like", "Buildroot-like", etc.)? Rich
