-The job of Hyperbola, independently of Freedom is, and always is, to develop a Stable version of Arch. Hyperbola releases several versions prior to releasing the stable branch. The other releases are means to that end. You may find these other releases perfectly usable for whatever use you have for them.+The job of Hyperbola, independently of Freedom is, and always is, to develop a stable, minimalistic and privacy-oriented operating-system. Hyperbola releases several versions prior to releasing the stable branch. The other releases are means to that end. You may find these other releases perfectly usable for whatever use you have for them.
  
 Understand, however, that Testing is testing; things are expected to break from time to time. Testing is just what it says it is; it is for testing whether it works reliably prior to its release as a future Stable. You may well find Testing reliable enough, and in fact others have remarked that Hyperbola Testing is more reliable than some other distributions' Stable releases. Understand, however, that Testing is testing; things are expected to break from time to time.

 +Hyperbola is also not following any other system-distribution alone, so it is neither to be recommended to use packages for example from **Arch GNU/Linux** or **Parabola GNU/Linux-libre** nor it would be really possible in general. We are using pacman as our package-manager, but we do everything else on our own and so our packages are also not compatible with other systems.
