[arch] arch-stable

[RedShift]

Hi everyone

Since I have been starting my webhosting company I have also been 
seeking for a good server distribution. I have searched and looked at 
all the server type distributions on distrowatch but none of them 
appealed to me. Arch's simplicity makes it a breeze to maintain and 
debug. Not to mention all those rpm based distributions these days, but 
that is beyond the scope of this email.

However, arch has one problem. It does not have a stable repository. And 
the release repo is only a snapshot of current while a lot of other 
server software (like postfix) is contained in extra.

Therefore I'm calling out to people who are willing to work with me on 
an arch stable repository. Upon a new release, the packages would be 
mirrored to the arch-stable tree. From there on only packages that have 
security issues are updated. So if apache were to release 2.2.5 and the 
one in release is 2.2.4, arch-stable would *only, and only then* emit a 
new package if 2.2.4 would contain security issues that are fixed in 
2.2.5. Thus very similar other distributions "stable", release version 
packages + critical updates.

Is anyone interested in this?
