It's not about comparing to other projects. Different kernel releases are all stable, and have wildly divergent bug sets. The issue is providing a reasonably stable usable platform - realistically, if ISC wanted people running a version of bind in production, wouldn't they *tag it as stable and release it*? By shipping it in a release, we're essentially saying we know better than upstream what's appropriate for users. Do we?
