Parent article: Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 released

I've been using sid for a couple of years, I think, so I guess you could say I've tried "sarge plus a little instability". I just thought it was policy not to release while there were any RC bugs; the emails from the RM seem to imply that.

If the packages with bugs on that page aren't in base (and, now that I check, they aren't), why are they there? Isn't that page just for base?

Yes, that page is for base; the packages in question were in base at one point, but are not currently, and are not in sarge at all. It's merely a bug in the web page -- bugs in web pages don't necessarily receive the same attention as bugs in packages :)
