I've made my argument that Debian 7.* is tested. I welcome input
and opinions as long as we don't get caught in futile discussions
on semantics.

It all boils down to whether or not we can trust Debian to only
make reasonably backwards compatible point releases (which I am
of the opinion that we can). Of course, those that disagree have
valid points, but the cost of not trusting Debian has been
described in my previous mail.



PS. I just noticed that the Ubuntu version string in
SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS does not include point release version.
The latest 12.04 release is 12.04.4.
