OK, I understand, it is a question of practice and tradition.

ps: I thought that a trunk snapshot after a pretest is better than
pretest - what with checkin controls and feature freezes etc - and hence
qualifies as a pretest build. I think what you mean here is that - it is
not blessed by the maintainers and it will not be widely announced.
