I'd say not necessarily progress, just some thoughts is also ok. Some kind of 
summary of our discussion may also be interesting, a blog post being easier 
to read than a whole topic.

OK

A weekly release isn't compatible with validated/unvalidated. Since there's a 
lot of non-working code (ok, not a lot, but there's some) in unvalidated, I'd 
prefer keep validated.

On the other side, what you propose may be enough: from unvalidated, only keep 
what compiles without errors:

 * I look for a sample
 * try to compile it
 * if ok, I grab all dependencies (libs)
 * if not, nothing

This means the starting point are the samples, not the libs, which make sens 
since the only thing we can check is JSG.

OK. Does this mean we'll also release *every* device files ? If we go this 
way, we should.
