the Linux kernel 2.6 itself first will become mature if Andrew takes
over the maintainer role and the 2.7 branch is created. However the
kernel itself is stable and the BlueZ core is also stable. The USB
problem you are talking about is a driver problem (hci_usb) only and
don't effect the BlueZ core.

This is a another nice point why I don't really wanna start thinking in
black/white or stable/testing categories. Choose what you need and then
you can start talking about how stable this will be for a specific use
case.

Marcel
