Well, IMHO, this is the mentality that *must* be fixed.

If people know that Beta1 is not meant to be bug-free, and someone
documents how to easily test it without stuffing up a working
installation, and lets people know that if they want their hardware to
work, they *must* test this one, then maybe we can get hardware bug
reports in early. People with issues may be asked to try beta2 to see if
it fixes issues. By beta3 the kernel should be in freeze (ie security
fix only). There have been too many problems from late kernel changes.
