Is faster release cycles for Debian stable required ?

At ZDnet is an article where it is to read that according to Matthew Garret - Debian Project Leader (DPL) candidate and developer, Debian is not releasing a stable version of its software often enough. At the time of writing, it has been 31 months since the last Debian stable release (Woody) in July 2002.

While Debian does release more updated software through the Testing and Unstable versions, the Debian project makes it clear that this versions is not suitable for production use. The Testing distribution is described as 'not completely tested', and has no official support from the Debian security team, while Unstable should be run by developers and those who like to live on the edge.

Yes, it's needed faster cycles for Debian stable, you can't have one for each minor kernel version and that when everyone is switching to next :P
