I think that is misguiding. Rather than pointing towards SVN head we
ought to fix the stable branch when it fails. That is what stable
branches are for. 

Is it possible 0.12 gets kept in a usable state until we release 0.14?

Because of the article we will get people who need (a little more) careful
guidance. Maybe I am tring to push Nix in a certain direction, but I
believe I am not alone in this. Otherwise the article will have done
more harm than good. I certainly don't want to be using Nix
development versions all the time.
