For you and me and lots of others they will be pointless. For users they will be a means to get the latest stable version that is no more than three months behind the cutting edge.
Especially if the actually releasing part is scripted, then its just a repackaged daily anyway.
No. There's a one week freeze for bug fixes, a branch and another week of bug fixes. That's our way to make sure they're "stable" and not just a repackaged daily.
eventually we might lose interest
Well, "eventually" we might do a lot of things but I don't see this release plan to be a thing that has a high risk of getting abandoned soon. And even if we do give up the concept in the future, what's the harm?
