Agreed.
I'd suggest the same for the '07/2013 RELEASE' to at least update /dev repo
to the current "approved" /hipster Illumos-gate snapshot before pushing to
/release.
You could respin the oi_151a7 ISO with that recent Illumos_gate snapshot so
people can still test the Illumos_gate snapshot for current issues. (oi_151a7.1)
The /hipster oi-userland changes should get pushed to /dev from that point with
the same snapshot of Illumos_gate from /release. You then update the Illumos
builds from that point of reference.
Example:
/release= /dev
Illumos_gate_47f42be153c1 +
oi_151a7 (old /dev repo)
new /dev = /hipster
Illumos_gate_47f42be153c1 +
OI-JDS_2b18d0590968 +
oi-userland (s12_26)
(whatever else)

I think an updated illumos-gate packages should go into oi_151a7 first, because
of NFS related BUG fix #2986.
