Sorry for revisiting the same topic again. I've been using Labs in the past. But the lack of releases forced me to move my stuff off from Labs. IMO, one cannot reasonably expect a project to get off the ground, if the installation instructions start with "Grab the software from SVN/Git, and build it." Or, in the case of a Java project: You've got to distribute your stuff via Maven Central, or it won't be used.
