Some more nitpicking: I don't know if the Guix project has agreed on the
semantics on the terms "alpha" and "beta", but the usual definition is
that in "alpha" software might undergo big unexpected (by the user)
changes so "so it may BREAK IN UNEXPECTED WAYS." is an appropriate
warning. In "beta" this kind of breakage should not happen. I.e. "beta"
usually means that the general state of the software is stable and no
big breakages are expected, but rather it's a phase of ironing out the
remaining kinks.
