Releasing beta test level code without declaring it as such is against my
moral principles.  What I'll probably do is declare the current code beta,
quit changing it, use it for a few days, run everything I have lying around
on it, and if I don't see problems I'll put it on riceng for a week beta.
If no bitches, we'll call it r3.

And if there are bugs, there will be r4.

Maybe I'm too mentally ill to work in software, but I do believe in some level
of QA on code I release :-)
