Good question.

I don't think stable would be wise, but, as long as the package
doesn't expose to the end user an api that may change (ie:
My_Package_Class extends Unstable_Package_Class), I think we're pretty
safe. What do others think?

Doesn't matter, the alpha package might change and break your package in the
process.

Hmm.. in that case, for any package released with unstable
dependencies it's probably best to say that the dependency has a
recommended version.

Yeah - you can in theory set the same version as max and min dep - but
Alexey has a point, in theory you can not have alpha dep in a beta
package and so on ... We tend to be a bit more lenient about alpha dep
in beta packages but just make sure not to go stable before
HTTP_Request2 :-)
