well, it is true, but not _really_ 100% exact.

start.
This event will be announced widely (it happened for 1.3) suggesting
users to download and install "frozen", to contribute to the testing.
Therefore, looking carefully inside my cristal ball, I dare to say that
you'll be announced of the imminent release one month before.
So the question is: when unstable will be frozen?
The answer is: when all the goals for hamm will be achieved (or marked
for failed :-). There is a list of goals that used to be posted untill
last fall. I think that it is now actively maintained again, and maybe
you'll see it in the future.

A script to do automatically the move is under test. I think it will be
available soon.
