While the latest release may be, errr 'edgey' I don't think Ubuntu can
be characterized as 'bleeding-edge'.

Again, it's a description of Ubuntu that doesn't match up with my
understanding
of the distro. Heck, I'm still waiting for a Firefox 2.0 packeage. ;-)

Edgy has had FF2.0 for some time and I believe it is even available via the backports repo for Dapper.
Also Edgy is on the very bleeding edgy and has all of the latest releases of every package in its repos.
