There's a difference between 'releasing' a Development build and other 
categories of viewers (Project, Beta, or Release; see 
https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Viewer_Types ).

We actually do not want to apply the 'normal' standard that a 
Development build can't have any regressions in it - that would make it 
equivalent to a Beta or Released build.   Clearly, we don't want to 
promote a build with regressions to one of those higher levels, but 
putting it out as a Development build with the appropriate caveats is a 
means of _finding_ those regressions.
