Lets say , during 4 weeks of bug-squishing period , all expermental features will be also tested for bugs , if they exist they will be report to the contributor of that feature , if the contributor or anyone send the patch(and if contributor statify the patch if some other fixed) , that feature will be included in main-stream , else they will tagged exprimental.
how about that sounds? it should be exercised at every Stability level versions. lets say every x.x5 (1.85 for example but any number that massimo wish) . As web2py is aimed for Enterprise level , this should make development look and feel "Enterprise".
