I think "milestone" releases works if you have a clear development

"releases" to Maven and dist, Alphas and Betas make more sense for us
IMO.


I don't care what we call it.  They key is that we set up the
expectation with our users.  If you use this release, do NOT use it in
production code.  It is not "supported", meaning we aren't going to
fix bugs in that alpha version if we have already released its
subsequent full release version (or a subsequent alpha).

Indeed and agreed.

I also don't care if its called milestone or alpha or whatever.
But we already have explicit wording for milestone releases [1], also clearly stating such releases are not supported.

So I'm actually only asking *confirmation* to use already established rules.
