I think you'll find that this is how most software packagers (check
any Linux distribution) do it, after the package has been in the
testing or unstable branch for a reasonable amount of time.

Also, you may find you have to mark a pre-alpha package stable the day
it's released if the previous stable version has a serious security
issue.
