Bumps introduce new bugs, only backports are a suitable way to manage
a stable release and I think there is no man power nor the will to do
that.

Actually *all* is in a developement phase, cornucopia, gui apps, E,
the distro is based on a live OE tree, it's obvious that the
stabilization phase, IMHO, will not start before the next year, not
with actual conditions, and not before developers will be happy of
their work, and will think to maintain a second branch (not only OE,
but apps and framework too) with full backports. Anyway I guess there
is no fun in that, and it's hard to convince all that peoples spreaded
on so different projects, emh... it may never happens :)

Add that users seems to prefer new features instead of stability (do
you remember old surveys?)

So thanks to Sebastian in taking testing snapshots, giving to hidden
developers the possibility to concentrate on their works and not
become crazy following the continue upstream changes :)

In the meanwhile it may be nice to manage a list of old but known to
work rootfs, that may be an easy community task.
