Hi,

The current state of affairs is that there is no released version of Nebula
but only the availability of the latest and the greatest. Before a build is
uploaded to the download site it has passed all (available) tests. So I
would consider it stable given the amount of commits we get.

I'm not per se looking at NatTable because we have no release plans. So a
"stable version" will get old real soon.

How about we do it like Eclipse Orbit
<http://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/>.

Beside the daily build, we just stamp out a stable version every quarter or
so that is on line for two years.

Cheers,

Wim
