I like this approach because it matches what the community seems to
actually be doing: the latest release is "experimental" until told
otherwise.  (Though who decides when it stops being experimental?
Everyone here on python-dev thought 2.2 was OK, and I use 2.2 every
day without pain, so I don't really know what people are complaining
about.)
