Rolf,

Can you remind me what the stable branch mailing list is? I suspect many 
devs are more interested in .dev than .stable and are not on the list.

I would guess that most users of .stable are more focused on their 
product work than keeping up with listservs.

Another case you should think of is that it is likely that .stable will 
start to have changes that do not make sense for .dev. Also with time 
.stable will be "replaced" with a new branch from .dev. (I use the 
quotes, because the original branch may have users for a long time).

Pplease remember we are all very busy and have a great deal of trouble 
keeping up with all of our responsibilities.

Philip
