While it's clear that we're not ready for stability quite yet, things are falling into place. So why don't we do this: keep on doing the monthly alpha release thing now and in January, release a beta in February, and then 2.0 in March. The meaning of "beta" versus "alpha" is just marketing, to try to prepare some buzz for 2.0. What do yall think? Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
