I am wondering if there could be a formalized and supported (=logistical 
resources?) for customers to get to create their own branches - so they can 
make up their own schedules and plans and decide which "stable release" version 
of a TizenIVI release to snapshot as their "alpha and move towards production".

This is a perfect time to re-ask the question that Geoffroy asked the other 
day...

Should we change the default repo to be daily instead of snapshots? If QA is 
testing daily images against snapshot repos because that is the default, that's 
a good argument for changing the default to daily.

The question then becomes: how do our customers use the daily images? I am 
willing to bet they really don't want the bleeding (possibly broken) edge.
In fact, the official stance is that, in general, we don't really want anyone 
other than developers using snapshots. The are there for engineering and 
development use and convenience. Customers and others use them at their own 
risk.

Adam - I would agree with both of these comments.

Based on that assumptionÅ assuming it is validÅ I think we should default to 
daily instead.

Anyone think differently? Thoughts?
