Whether immature or not (fwiw, I disagree), we don't even have current
builds do promote it to unstable, for a broader audience and perhaps new
contributors.
You see it as an "Rockbox emulator" because you know Rockbox so well. I
dont think newcomers have the same impression.

Furthermore, every guy I installed Rockbox for liked it. The UI isn't as
horrible as some people think and the features are just awesome, so I
don't see why we should not release (tbh, my list spacing patch was
applied on all installations ;) ).

Release early, release often.

Best regards.
