The idea is: use the quarterlies, and if the next quarter comes,
upgrade to that quarterly. The quarterlies are a way to test
if we can provide some 'more stable tree' than HEAD for the ports.

It's not perfect, and we all learn the use cases and the issues etc.

I don't have the overview over all the posts on that issues, so:
is there a text that describes alternative approaches ? Something
where implementation can be discussed ?
