Nathan, not yet. I'll planning to install it on my prime system this weekend 
(maybe even tonight) replacing Debian Woody. I'll gain KDE 3 :-) and lose APT 
:-(

A test install on a spare drive went smoothly and left only sound & modem to 
configure by hand - same as when I installed Woody.

One reason for switching besides KDE 3 (I know I can hack Woody to get it) is 
I feel I should learn to complie kernels and programs from source (and do 
other daring things:-)).  Up to now I've been dependent on binaries if I 
wanted something.

I do wonder how much more trouble it will be to keep system updated since APT 
made that job child's play.
