 What is unsuitable about the nightly branches? The only thing that I see
 might be problematic for someone are the SCL macros. It's true that
 guidelines say that there should be a comment on top of the specfile about
 this [1], but the SCL macros can actually be present in the specfile, if
 they're turned of in official builds. If you want us to add the comment,
 just say so - otherwise I don't see anything unsuitable in the nightly
 branches.
