I know that (you had said that to me few times). What I wanted to stress is:

a) lack of any instructions, docs and plan explanation, etc for both 
/dev and /hispter releases
b) I had a look into dictionary: hipster is "a person who follows the 
latest trends and fashions." - So I would expect that /hipster is moving 
faster than /dev.
c) I would expect that changes made in /hipster are implemented to /dev 
(or it could be that I have wrong impression? see a)
d) I am willing to help with testing, but with no idea what would be 
next step, it is really hard.

P.S. I am running /hipster and have zone running /dev. Now I have 
paradox: zone was updated to 1.9 while my global zone is still 1.8.1
