I agree 100% that the names should indicate the _purpose_ of the thing

So PRODUCTION is a better name than STABLE, DEVELOPMENT is a better name
than UNTESTED or CURRENT, and PREVIEW is a better name than WORKING.
DEVELOPMENT
PREVIEW
PRODUCTION
sound nice too and easily comprehended by the unwashed masses


cool! I vote fo it!
