That's wrong.  Debian stable aims at production systems.  If your

Openoffice.org or audio players or  ...

I guess there are multimedia users out there who care much about a
stable system, reproducible results and have to earn some money from
their work - so they do not want to deal with unforseable changes.
Please do not advertise testing as a release which is ready for
users.  (Yes, I admit I use testing in the way you describe - but
*I* know what I'm doing.)

Kind regards
