Comment:

 I agree that it would probably serve many individual users better if we'd
 re-word these options to more strongly encourage "latest release" and
 discourage "latest development version." On the other hand, it serves the
 Django project well to have some people running off the latest development
 version and filing bugs against it. If nobody runs real code against
 master, we'll have lower-quality releases (or tons of bugs discovered in
 pre-releases, which puts more time-stress on the release schedule). So I
 don't really want to remove that suggestion entirely, for those who are
 willing to try it.
