<20110501133957.ga13...@rivendell.home.ouaza.com> sounds to me like we will loose quite some man-power for making stable releases. This could equally well mean we can't do some. If it is guranteed that stable release don't become harder / uglier, I don't think anybody has any reservations to adding new suites. However, as long as the general impression is "making stable releases will get way harder", that's different.
