Etch is currently in testing. There are several major changes scheduled to take place before Etch becomes stable. One such change is the transition from gcc-3.3 to gcc-4.0 as the system C compiler, and g++-3.3 to g++-4.0 as the system C++ compiler. Another transition is from glibc 2.3.2 to 2.3.5, and a third is from XFree86 4.3 to X.org 6.8. The GCC transition is in progress now, the other two will take place later. Other scheduled transitions include KDE (3.3 to 3.5) and GNOME (2.8 to 2.12). So, Etch is currently very much in a state of flux :) As always with Debian, Etch will be released "when it is ready". -- Ludovic Brenta.
