+Next time, maybe waiting for the beta would be better, cauldron is not
+mean to be a playground for testing upstream softwares when we do not
+have a strong assurance that the stable will end i the stable release.
+
+If everybody start to do that, we spend more time on upgrading to
+version that should have been stable than fixing others bugs.
+
+And if upstream could also try to be a little bit less original and
+follow some easy to grasp convetion about version number.
