I'm afraid we can discuss this topic forever.
Eventually Stefan has to decide how he wants to create his snapshot builds.
I don't think any of us wants to stop him from producing these builds, but I'm
afraid adding more and more suggestions will eventually have that effect.
I think Stefan understands our concerns...
I suggest we let him come up with a solution that resolves most of our issues
and only if there is a real problem with those builds we try to change things.
I'm sure Stefan won't call his builds 'Subversion releases', as he has that
made clear in almost every of his mails. And as far as I know he isn't even
looking at releasing production versions.
So let's try resolving this discussion into something actionable, instead of
just delaying the availability of these binaries.
Perhaps Stefan can then focus on other things... I'm guessing that he will add
valuable input on (and perhaps patches for) a lot of other features in the
feature :-)
