The word "production" is misleading there, and I think it should be
changed to explain the whole story, but:

    db-stable is deployed to launchpad.net on releases
    db-stable is deployed to staging.launchpad.net daily
    stable is deployed to edge.launchpad.net daily

db-stable is the post-test-run counterpart of db-devel. stable is the
post-test-run counterpart of devel. By post-test-run I mean that once
code hits *devel it is only cleared into *stable if the buildbot test
runner succeeds.
