I, for one, would appreciate seeing more official releases of 
intermediary/patch releases.  I can't seem to find the magic incantation to 
build from SVN but released tarballs haven't yet given me any issues, so I'm 
stuck testing a release and then waiting another 3 months for the next one to 
fix any bugs I might have hit.  Currently, I'm unwilling to move to 3.0.5 at 
this time because of a bug I hit, which has since been fixed (so I've been 
told), but I'm not going to be able test that until 3.0.6.  And 3.0.5 has some 
fixes for bugs in 3.0.4 that I'd love to see squashed, so I'm stuck choosing 
between which bugs I want.  Typically I love to be on the bleeding edge and 
work in an environment without strict change management, so it's pretty easy to 
do testing, if only I could actually build the software.

I suppose if someone from Cfengine could simply provide the process to take an 
SVN tree to a "releasable" tarball, I would gladly do that portion myself, 
releasing Cfengine from whatever QA process you like to do before making such 
official releases, but still allowing me to do more gradual testing.
