Comment (by AndyGill):

 TO build on SimonM's 05/30/07 13:13:33 comments:

 We could also use a staging repo

  * At a specific time, every patch is pulled from darcs/ghc to
    darcs/staging_<uniq>/ghc
    (same with the related repos for the libraries)
  * The buildbots build from the staging versions.
  * If a version builds and tests ok, we change the name of the repo
     from staging_<uniq> to stable_<uniq>
  * We publish a list of the stable repos.

 Changes still go back into HEAD.

 We definitely do need to overall things a bit; no stable builds
 and pulling in every patch every time for developers are a huge
 overhead.
