Well i personaly don't have a problem with that - but you're right when 
you mean that it violates the policy.
I would do something like adding a warning to the packages that this 
releases are done without the knowledge of the authors/maintainers so 
that people don't start to blame us (the authors) for broken apps. When 
thinking about the current state of kmyfirewall, i don't think that the 
users will have fun with those snapshots (well and i won't hav fun 
answering mails telling me that the app is broken - as i know that 
fact). On the other side this would shurely increase the number of 
people who write bug reports. As everytime there are to sides of every 
story.
