I agree, of course we should only release versions when they are stable, but we must also acknowledge that a development version (and this is true for freenet more than most software projects) can only really be tested by being downloaded and used by a reasonable number of people - without such testing it will remain a development version forever! This means that we need to think about how we can achieve both aims. One option would be to have essentially two separate Freenets (each using a different inform.php script).
