Understanding the WSL release mode

[lgmorand]

Question is simple: we have a new release every two weeks but what make a release to be a stable release and not a "prerelease"? I found not logical by looking at the semver and trying to guess when the next version will be stable and thus upgradable with "wsl --update"

We make a mark a release as "stable" based on how many open issues / bugs are opened on that release. The version number itself doesn't describe itself whether a release is stable or not.

wsl --update always updates to the newest stable release and wsl --update --pre-release always updates to the latest available release
