Shouldn't [unstable] be before community, current and extra by default? ;-/
People might get a bit too eager and uncomment the repo and run a pacman -Syu
Yes, this is the impression I got too, and I agree with it. [unstable] is exactly that. [community], on the other hand, is generally stable yet less popular packages. If you go by logical, hierarchal ordering, "before" sometimes implies "better". If I didn't know better, and saw community below unstable, I would automatically think "community is _worse_ than unstable", but it is, in actuality the other way around. I'd put my money on a community package before an unstable one (no offense to Shadowhand) because most of those are development versions, and unstable by their very nature.
