I think it is not recommended, but even necessary as mentioned in the standup.

We need to have one instance running where we develop, and at least at some time we need to check whether our setup is compatible with the next LTS release (or even next LTS releases as currently :-)).

Updating `/etc/hosts` is unfortunately not enough, as you'd also need to update the Apache configuration, which is vhost based.

I have not went through the whole process, so I do not know what needs to be updated in what files, so I'd prefer to merge this as is, and add more information when somebody worked further in the process of running two instances.
