This is great news.
Am I right in thinking that, on a fresh Debian system, if I replace the line in `sudo apt edit-sources` with _testing_, i.e., replace with the line below, and then install Freedombox, I will be running the newest release 20.7?
I.e., if I follow the following steps will I end up with the unstable (testing) version of Freedobox installed on my Debian system (Raspberry Pi 3B - Rasbian/Buster)?:
1. edit the source list:
`sudo apt edit-sources`
1. replace existing line with:
`deb http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/ testing main contrib non-free rpi`
1. exit and save:` Ctrl + x`, `y` and then `Enter`
2. add the repo keys:
3. Update the system:
` sudo apt update`
1. and install Freedombox:
`sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install freedombox`

Raspbian is not the same as Debian, and unstable is not the same as testing.
You will end up installing whatever version is in Raspbian’s testing repository. I haven’t tested this.
It may be useful to document what works or doesn’t work, in case other Raspbian users have the same question.

Thanks. I found a [reply](https://discuss.freedombox.org/t/switching-to-rolling-testing-release/222/7), below, that you gave in another thread and if I understand correctly, _unstable_ will turn up in _testing_ pretty soon and then _stable_ eventually. Is that the basic progression?
I’m interested because the changes above mention improvements to matrixsynapse (Fix initial installation and upgrade from backports) and I have been having trouble connecting with Riot clients outside my local network and hope this might resolve this issue!
> freedombox 19.11 will be uploaded tomorrow to experimental only (for now).
> freedombox 19.2 to become available in testing (very soon).
> freedombox 19.2 will be uploaded to backports.
> freedombox 19.11 will be uploaded to unstable.
> freedombox 19.11 to become available in testing 2 days after that.
> freedombox 19.11 may be uploaded to backports based on confidence.

> Last two steps will repeat every 3 weeks for each release.

Yes, the basic flow is unstable -\> testing -\> stable-backports. It usually takes only a few days to get to backports.
The version in stable will not change until the next Debian release, sometime in 2021: [https://release.debian.org/bullseye/freeze\_policy.html](https://release.debian.org/bullseye/freeze_policy.html)
