3. Deliver milestone builds to harvest our development fruits. A milestone
build is:
(a) a development snapshot that contains the features/enhancements
that implemented till now;
(b) passed regression test to ensure no severe defects;
(c) announced on a development wiki;
(d) with documents on the wiki for the list of features and bug fixes
in this milestone build (like a release notes).
Milestone builds are a good idea: they would not be the same as the
daily snapshots (which by the way are not yet available for all
platforms). I would add:
(e) available in all official supported languages, at least as langpack;
and make the builds available on a monthly basis, so they can be easily
identified and we can engage QA testers more effectively. This, of
course, unless people who provide the builds find it too time-consuming
to upload a build per month.
