Is there any plan to release a "stable" version more frequently? I
maintain the package for Arch Linux. I'm just using the snapshots but
ideally I would use a version that doesn't change almost every day, and
that is relatively up to date. I would like to then move it into the
official repos.
I'm in a similar situation with Debian and raised the same issue a while
back, and at the time the general feeling was that the developers didn't
have the resources to support an actual release and didn't want to commit
to one. But it's been a few years, so maybe it's time to reconsider?
I'm not sure that much in the way of committment to ongoing maintenance is
required. It would just be rather convenient for those of us packaging
for other environments if someone would pick a version that doesn't seem
to have any unusual problems and seems to compile and stick a regular
version number on it (a 1.0 or 1.1 or so forth).
