I would argue for a little more rigorous release process than "It probably
compiles".  I would hope for something more like "It compiles and runs
well enough, but newer features may be buggy, so use at your own risk".
This would provide a little more structure for the developers as well,
where there could be shorter-term milestones, and defined checkpoints
where new features were introduced.  I should think it would make it
easier to keep track of changelogs along the way, also.
