I am using sid now with antix-16. I also have jessie with antix-15 in another partition.

I have tried to make a stretch installation except there isn't a stretch in the daveserver. The debian has an early freeze for stretch leading to a final stretch in 2017. Are there plans to make a stretch dist for antix or just continue with sid?

There will be a stretch folder at some point.
At the moment it is testing.

Ok, thanks for the info.
I think I will let my sid keep going and upgrade the jessie to stretch when that is official.

At the moment upgrading antiX jessie to antiX stretch will break some apps, notably roxterm and an upgrade also messes up themes for IceWM and JWM as well as conky.
I'm sure any gtk3 stuff will also have issues even if they are not actually 'broken'
