No I understand, but given that STABLE should be guarded more than
CURRENT when it comes to noticing our userbase of potential ``dangerous'
source update times I think the mail I sent out was justified and not
trying to cause panic. I see which point of view you are coming from
though.

With rush I am referring back to 4.1-RELEASE of 4.0-RELEASE MFC's. That
wasn't pretty in the least. As well as the last few weeks/months of
immediate MFC's.

I am sure that I am testing things before committing, as well as reading
the logs to see what everything is about. I am not even considering
major impact changes for MFC.
I think the STABLE crowd knows my MFC's by know.
