In my opinion, the beta release *scheduled* (we'll see...) for the end
of this week we could name it Beta1.
Silently... without any unnecessary redundant comment - unless
explicitly asked, in such case we need to keep at hand an agreed reply
like: Fosdem iso has been just a [technical preview? foretaste? early
test? sample pack? ....?] // put here the most proper definition you
like // to show, waiting for actual Beta.
I've read around of some projects who start the whole beta stage
naming their releases beta1, beta2, beta3 if any. So not simply "beta"
namely without any number.
I guess this will be a kind of workaround to come out in an elegant
way from the impasse.
In my Italian country we have a saying "Salvare capra e cavoli" which
means to someway solve a deadlock situation, but I cannot provide you
any enlightening English translation to give the right sense :)
Hoping that this topic will serve as a lesson for the future.
Frankly speaking I believe we have to spend our limited free time
focusing on real issues instead of to be annoyed with solving
avoidable stupid problems. IMHO.
