I think this is what the new grimoire system is for.
Devel == lunatic
Things you want tested by willing masochists go into devel but not into test.
test is for stable releases and bugfixes.
This may need a new tag in p4 like DEVEL_ONLY so that anyone integrating
won't
move them into test grimoire until the DEVEL_ONLY tag gets removed.
The only issue is access to the devel repository. I am happy using p4 but i
have an account. Is the cvs repository ready yet, are their scripts in place
to sync p4 and cvs ?
If cvs is ready then we should give out the details of how to use cvs for a
devel grimoire and all these gnome spells could go straight into devel.

ps i have just woken up so i hope this makes sense.
