One more thing I'd like to add: leaky-faucet should be in the "always ready 
for beta" stage. That is, the maintainers of the modules should monitor this 
branch and ensure that all changes coming in are contributing towards the 
beta-ready status, not detracting from it.

Large code refactorings and new features should be developed out of this 
branch and merged in only when they're ready to be beta-tested.

Whether the beta cycle starts immediately after the feature landing or 6 
months later, that's orthogonal to the discussion.
