In other words, I think channels are not the best way to separate stability levels.Would anyone have any reservations about removing the name field from channel.xml, and simply using server as the name? This is the recommended setting anyways, so that channel pear.php.net refers to pear.php.net.I have no problem with this, but one question: would it ever make sense to host more than one channel per server name? Say, example.com might have a "stable" channel and a "development" channel. Don't know if that would be a reasonable use. I'm in favor of simplicity, regardless.
