I would agree within this, as someone who has a server bundle that is based on 
the Jackrabbit Sling Server bundle, based on JR16 it took me 2 weeks to migrate 
it from 1.5 to 1.6 and fix all the problems. I wouldn't want to have to push a 
release out based on snapshots, it wouldnt send the right message.
