I think we can make this happen without affecting anyone too much. The idea
would be to declare the unstable stream to be the road to 3.9 and
selectively re-order the updates for the "stable" stream. So what you'd get
in the unstable updates would be the 3.8 and 3.9 intermangled whereas in the
stable updates these are well-ordered. I don't see too many problems with
this and it would certainly simplify the situation and avoid any rewriting
of the server's update lists.
Cheers,
