My general idea for determining media was after "big" things have been
rolled into testing, for example new kernel, udev, or even new
Chromium version for that matter. After that kind of things, "cut"
would be made.

I'm not sure if you tried to say the same thing, but I would make it
available for general public after ~<= month "cut" has been made, and
has been tested.

Testing time of the "cut" should be measure by how many "cuts" do you
want until the "final" release.
