We should set some kind of convention for naming .iso files so as to
avoid confusion about whether a specific build is/isn't Alpha, Beta,
RC, or GA. See these threads in fantastic new unified forum:<br>

In this instance I replaced 'beta' in file names to 'dev-rel' short
for 'development-release'. That's one way to do it. But perhaps it
would be even better to have build ID # in file name something like:<br>
<br>
This is actually originally rugyada's idea. Quoting rugyada here:<br>
<br>
Perhaps that could be done instead of 'dev-rel'?
<p>I'd say<br>
<code>OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-dev-rel14378-PLASMA.x86_64.iso</code></p>
<p>or for better reading<br>
<code>OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-dev-rel_14378-PLASMA.x86_64.iso</code></p>
I'd avoid whatever definition (alpha/beta/etc.) at all in
development releases file name.<br>
People do know that are dev-rel and in which development stage we
