D stable is being run by someone else. It seems like the current plan is for 
us to continue to put out releases like we have been but the D stable folks 
will manage a separate repo which only has the stable changes and then fully 
syncs up with master at some interval. Whether that's the best way to deal 
with it is another matter, but that at least looks like what they're planning 
on doing.

Regardless, the UDA stuff can't be in the next release. If we want to create a 
branch that we do the release from (which we should be doing anyway), then UDA 
can be explicitly removed from there rather than master, but it needs to not 
be released regardless.

How D stable gets managed is a related matter, but based on the discussions on 
that, I expect that that will be sorted out _after_ the next release rather 
than with the next release (particularly since this is the last release with 
D1, and Walter is more open to changing how does things after he doesn't have 
to support D1 anymore).
