Just going to throw out that I think the only goal we can all agree
on is to not regress on certification once we achieve it.
I certainly hope we agree on this :-) but hope we can find more to
agree on.

Can we agree that we need to somehow construct the stable, unstable

I don't think we have agreed on what is stable and what is
unstable. We were having a discussion on the fact that it is now
impossible to offer a stable upgrade/patch path for applications.
That thread was killed with "PLEASE CAN WE PUT IT ON HOLD UNTIL
AFTER CERTIFICATION."
Now Jeremy has proposed that we ignore that discussion and begin
cementing what we currently have as stable. How is that at all
fair?
I don't know about fair, but I am finding this discussion nearly as
distracting as the previous one that we put on hold. I still don't
see what exotic svn tricks might buy us over normal svn usage, and
don't want to spend a lot of time thinking about it until we pass all
the tests. I still think everyones perspective may change once we
are passing all the tests and have fixed the few egregious
architectural problems that crept in.
I would like to put this discussion on hold until we pass all the
tests
if that happens, w/o a stable area, we have to put all changes except
certification related changes on hold until we pass.
right?
Not really, I think anything we agree should be in our actual first
certified release can be added. For instance I'd like to see Jeremy's
configuration and assembly plugins get to a working state and be used
for the build. There are a couple of other changes I have in mind that
dont affect tests passing but improve the structure or usability.
There's at least one patch (servlet start order) I want to apply soon.
