it seems this discussion would not happen if not the problem summarized above. well... if you need more stable line, then why not to create one with appropriate branch in CVS? of course, the problem is that somebody needs to maintain that, which I believe is full time job and lack of resources causes the stable branch to freeze. therefore, imho, it is not good idea to link CVS HEAD with stable line - and that was the result of similar discussions in the past if i reckon well. if you need more reassurance, then what about introducing TH-STABLE tag and sending packages to builders only when they are tagged with above?
