Obviously, the decision is yours to make, but I think both distro's have
policy documents that are clearly contradictory.

resources.en.html#s4.6.4
...
Whenever there is a new upstream version of a package that introduces
new features but breaks a lot of old ones, it should either not be
uploaded, or be uploaded to experimental. A new, beta, version of some
software which uses a completely different configuration can go into
experimental, at the maintainer's discretion. If you are working on an
incompatible or complex upgrade situation, you can also use experimental
as a staging area, so that testers can get early access.

I guess thats about all I can say.  And I guess that we also have a
responsibility to the networks we unleash developmental clients unto.
