While that was how it was advertised, I cannot see that it is true. Edgy 
doesn't really contain any significant experimental features, excepting 
perhaps upstart, which just emulates init right now, and for the most 
part will likely continue to do so when Edgy is released. There were 
probably more new features in Dapper.

Are there some new, experimental features that I am missing, that would 
make Edgy live up to the descriptions of it right after Dapper was 
released?
