Allow me to propose something.
Right now all dmd changes get merged in the head. Suppose we find a
volunteer in the community who is:
1. Highly motivated
2. With a good understanding of D
3. Expert with git
4. Reliable
I wonder if it's possible that that person cherry-picks commits from
HEAD into two separate branches: bugfixes and unstable. It should be
easy to create installers etc. for those.
If we see this works well and gathers steady interest, we can improve it
and make it the practice of the entire team.
Would this be possible?

What would be the difference betwwen dmd head and unstable ?
Isn't it more simple to merge in unstable only or both unstable and
bugfix at first ?
