Well, primarily because I've never done it before, :-) but also because 
I want to stay close to the tip, and I think it's reasonable for the tip 
to freeze for stability, especially if we do a developers release at the 
same time.  (Of course, if the release took too long, a branch would 
start making more sense.)
