There was a pretty strong consensus against stable versions when it was first pushed last fall. I'm not sure if that consensus still exists (I'm strongly opposed to the concept myself), but it's worth noting.
I don't remember any such consensus against it.
Neither do I.
I recall it rather strongly, actually. It was around the same time we were preoccupied with the Elephant vandalism, and Cyde was the main guy saying let's do it anyway.
I recall bringing the issue up on this mailing list (or possibly wikipedia-l?) a few months ago, and not only was consensus strongly in favor, but there wasn't a *single* post opposed to it. There were just disagreements over the best way to do it.
