Right, but my point is that it is up to GNUnet as a project to send
users the right message.  As a user, I expect to use releases rather
than pick an arbitrary commit.

As a distro, our job is not to choose the commit that will give users “a
good experience”; this is upstream’s job.

IOW, we must tweak Christian et al. into making a new release.  :-)


Now, it’s not the end of the world if we provide a development snapshot
of GNUnet, and it’s a win if people find it useful.  But we must keep in
mind that this is an exception.

Does that make sense?
