That's exactly what I keep asking. It also requires some changes about features addition in stable releases, bugs fixes and release life cycles. All these words sounds like a nightmare to Derick&co, but that's something we have to go through. It is the only way to have controllable and plan-able releases (for us, our users and the distros).
