Switching from Microsoft Windows to Linux is one of the best decision I ever made.

I used to, and the going wisdom there is to point it to the name of the next release, then once it releases, wait for the first point release before repeating with the next release.

The reasoning here is that once there's a new release, there's a ton of churn on testing as people pull in packages from unstable, so that's the time of the most breakage. So wait a bit for things to stabilize after a major release.
