We don't want to run daily snapshots of your tree though, right? Only
-rcs because the daily states are kinda arbitrary and they can be broken
in various ways. Or are we at a point in time where we can amend that
rule?
If *nobody* runs daily snapshots - then problems just sit latent all week until
the -rc is released and people start testing. Doesn't sound optimal.

Running daily git snapshots can be "exciting" during the merge window. But
I rarely see problems running a random build after -rc1.  If you are still
running that ancient 3.11-rc6 released on Sunday - then you are missing out
on 28 commits worth of goodness since then :-)
