Yeah. And in my experience, releasing it earlier to the larger group earlier on makes the *beta* releases *final* quality in a shorter period of time. Granted it takes a little more effort to manage the bugs coming in and such, but I think it's worth it.

We're not talking about Beta releases. They're not of known Beta quality until the Alpha team have tested them, irrespective of the filename.

So let's put it another way. I don't have time to manage a mass ALPHA programme and the consequences that will arise from it. So, we can continue to use my system or we can discontinue new releases entirely.

OK class?
