We're slowly introducing the concept of "Quality Assurance" into the Gentoo development process. This is a time-consuming process, of which a split into stable/unstable is but a small part (although probably the one that will be most visible to the users). In exactly what form such a split will manifest itself is still not know, but rest assured we're working on it. For now, to avoid any disappointments wrt stability, think of Gentoo as "bleeding-edge". Kind regards, Karl T
