IMHO having the possibility to easily install the experimental version,
alongside with the stable one, on all major OSs (and especially on
Debian/Ubuntu, where most innovation-inclined people probaly reside)
would greatly increase our tester base.
Unfortunately, it does not seem a trivial task.
All the best.
