We want to avoid to have two distro, instead one which permanently changes. It 
increases the load on our build system and also to the mirrors, which need to 
sync twice as much data.

In addition to that, pleople will take a 11.0 directory now as final release. 
And they may not update to final one later leading to all kind of wired 
problems.
