By the way, when you say "staging" I think of the Linux

I still think their rules for staging have some merit as an
example for Phobos to ad{a,o}pt.

I am using this term in a same sense as some Linux distros -
place for packages that are supposed to get to the main repo but
are not yet there. Sometimes it takes form of separate repository
users can optionally enable to have a look at upcoming stuff.
Linux kernel definition is similar but somewhat more specialized
to their development model.
