I think maybe keeping milestone snapshots of cooker would be a good
thing.  These would be less stable than the betas but more stable than
Cooker, thus encouraging more to test out packages that are still in
development.  It would also provide more flexibility; if, late in the
devcycle of a version, it becomes apparent that Cooker is not in any
state to base a release of, one of the milestones may be more suitable
for release.

These milestones would probably better be based on certain criteria
being met, rather than a strict calendar approach.  This would, of
course, require that some type of roadmap be laid out for the
development of each version.
