AFAIK uploading a package to unstable means that you expect it to
migrate to testing and thus be part of etch. If you do not want that,
then you should not upload it to unstable.

Also, simply setting up a web page where the package can be downloaded
may attract people who would like to test it but who are afraid of using
unstable in general.

Experimental is autobuilt nowadays, so that should not be a problem. The
only thing you should be aware that the experimental autobuilders
satisfy build dependencies from unstable only, not experimental.
