Sure, I don't call them releases at all. Almost always mention what they are in logs as well, cvs and package changelog. Nor will I request stabilization of anything that is not an official release. No stable alpha's, beta's, etc. Granted this one I should have tagged _pre, or etc, so it might appear as a full release. Most people using ~arch on Gentoo, know they are running unstable where testing and breakage takes place. So it's not uncommon for snapshot/cvs/svn/dev/alpha/beta/etc stuff to go in there. Just ideally package name reflects that. Totally my bad with this one ;) If it's release soon enough will be moot. Otherwise I will go and rename package, and remove other one with incorrect name. -- William L. Thomson Jr. Gentoo/Java
