Default Stable/dev branches or should we provide pre-compiled binaries?

Currently to set up a server people have to download source that changes almost daily, and source in sql data that does also changes daily. At times this causes some disconnects, particularly with 3rd party tools.

Perhaps we could consider having a stable branch, and a dev branch on github? Active work on dev branch, then a reintegration for point releases (0.9., 0.10 or whatever).

Or a different way would be to supply precompiled binaries (at least for windows) so that people can install a known entity - which would help us support them better, and compile from source at your own peril/pleasure
