Ah, thanks for the explanation. That makes perfect sense.

Since 3.0dev is on the way so soon, it's not a big deal, but in the 
future, it might be worth publishing the release version to both the 
release and dev channels when the latest version is a release version, 
kind of like Mozilla does for Firefox. When Firefox 11.0 comes out, I 
expect that I'll be using the same version of Firefox as the release 
channel users are for a couple days before 12.0 beta 1 is released.
