Simon, I am also a recent convert from redhat to Debian. It would be good to share experiences of moving production systems over. I have got setup with 'stable' but I have had to upgrade php / apache / mysql. For mysql I managed to use backports. For php4 / apache, I compiled from source.
I would be interested to hear about some of the issues I should be aware of when compiling software from source alongside apt packages. What would the recommendations be? cyril.
