ATTENTION: They could potentially contain malicious code, so use them only for 
development testing purposes.

The reason is our build process: between drop candidates developers are free 
to completely destroy the code base to get it back for the weekly drop 
candidate. The saegewerk will also build those broken versions!

In addition KDE offers write access to their source repository for a lot of 
people, if someone checks in malicious code, it will be automatically build 
and published within the snapshots. So check the difference to the last 
trusted version before using a snapshot.
For the drop candidates, developers are doing this, so the weekly drop 
candidates are a lot better.
