Or again, do the head is stable enough > for daily use? my experience with current is that it's running perfectly stable. Just have a look at the archives of current-users and netbsd-bugs: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/tindex.html http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/index.html Imho, it's mostly about current not building than any serious stability problems.
