+1 for Robert's points therefore is a +0 for me about the name change.

I'm +0 on such a change as I would expect users to actually read the
fine web pages at [1].

If we go through with this, I'd to with something less scary that
experimental. Maybe '-dev' or '-unstable'?

Naming convention for unstable releases

2017-10-16 Thread Julian Reschke 

Hi there,

everybody over here knows that odd-numbered releases are unstable, taken 
from trunk.


However, apparently not all of our users know that.

Should we consider to label them accordingly in the future? Such as

  1.9.0-EXPERIMENTAL

instead of

  1.9.0

?

Best regards, Julian
