Even this can not work. You can not prevent stable on logilab common
from evolving faster than stable on cubicweb for example. "stable
branch" has a local meaning and in the current configuration of our
test bot, we use it as if it meant "stable distribution" as it is used
in Debian for example.

I gave more thought to the problem since I wrote its description
yesterday and came up to the conclusion that the only option is to
define a "cubicweb distribution" as a list of versions. The execution
will not depend on a vcs branch any more, but on a "distribution".

When things are proved to work with the rest of the distribution, we
can manually update the distribution to include them.
