Hej, come on. We should really try to make this the final beta and take it 
serious. Otherwise we will definately end up with something that is not 
beta-quality.
We already had this last time when originally it was planned to 
release a beta and it turned out to be an alpha-release (partly because
features weren't in place and partly because people didn't take bugs too 
seriously).
Trying to head for a final beta will certainly give a better quality and 
make us get faster near the real "final" beta than if we try otherwise.

Afterall there is still 9-10 days left until CVS is being tagged and 
this is a lot of time for fixing a lot of bugs. And beta doesn't mean
bugfree of course. It only means that the release contains all 
features.

Greetings,
Tackat
