That is a point, but even when I have put x.xxx releases in Testing -
i.e. given them a number and not just called them snapshots - some
people have been reluctant to try them.
I *always* get a lot more feedback when I create a "real" release. I
guess it's just human nature.
Perhaps I should make more frequent releases.
