Something to note is that people have different perception of 'stable' too. With the kernel changing on an almost daily basis, you can pretty much forget having kmod's working most of the time due to API churn and associated breakage. Likewise, various other add-ons that people like to grab from livna, freshrpms etc will be busted six ways to sunday. People expecting this sort of thing to keep working in rawhide will be in for a surprise.
