I think it would help if you went back to using meaningful names for releases, because 2.6.19-test1 is pretty clearly a test release even to people who can't figure out if a number is odd or even. Then after people stop reporting show stoppers, change to rc numbers, where rc versions are actually candidates for release without known major bugs.


Actually, considering our group of developers, I think "-rc" has been remarkably successful at staying on the "bug fixes only" theme.
