Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

Since you appear to understand very well what a release candidate is,
why are you suggesting that someone go to production with a git snapshot
that's not even a release candidate, but an intermediate version between
two release candidates (or a release candidate and a final release,
depending on community feed back and bug reports)?

Scott, please use release candidates and git checkouts for testing only.
Production systems should only get released versions (or certified
hotfixes if included in your support SLA).

Cheers,
Florian
