Works != stable. And good luck getting everyone to test it. I have a
hard enough time getting enough people to test the regular ISOs. Also,
AFAIK it was specifically engineered for virtual machines only, which is
probably why it wasn't tested on anything else yet.

This is not currently an official ISO. It's a modification of the test
releases I did, and therefore if the ISO it's based on isn't stable,
neither is that one. I'm not doing a stable release of a non-stable ISO
(dw only watches *stable* ISO releases, AFAIK; note that there is no
release news regarding the 0.10.0 series, and therefore releasing
Bertrand's ISO will *not* get us any additional press unless it is
released as stable).

Email police? :-P Your email is already on the list in the email you
