User counts are hard to tell, as we all know too well. I also don't
have a good overview of bug counts. But I'm reading the mailing list
with mantis updates, and I don't see any major issues that would
prevent us from taking a snapshot of unstable and marking it as
testing.

The kiel-to-stable promotion would only impact systems that subscribe
to the testing and stable symlinks. The default for pkgutil is
"testing", so all people who haven't touched their mirror= setting,
would be affected.

The kiel catalog is already getting old, and dublin is even older.
Let's not let them get stale. I'll send an announcement, and flip
symlinks in a week.
