Not sure if Daniel has responded yet as this was sent to him and only CC'ed to the list.

I think testing the first daily snapshot after the feature window closes would be ideal, as most possibly breaking changes happen before that.

I could also test some build combinations on multiple platforms, but it would also be much easier for me to test something under https://curl.se/download/ than under https://curl.se/snapshots/. The reason is that I'm consuming curl via Conan nowadays, and the Conan recipe uses an Artifactory cache pointing to https://curl.se/download/. I might be able to get a second cache pointing to the snapshots though.
