I propose that after 2.2.6 or 2.2.7, whichever comes last, that you
just do away with -stable altogether and start making three or four CD
SNAPs of -current per year and call it "semi-stable."  Just catch the
-current tree at a really good time when making those CDs.

>From my point of view, the gap between -stable and -current has grown
too wide to keep much interest in -stable.  PPPD is a good example.
The version in -stable is more than two years old.
