Fire up your testing environments: they're going to get some use over

In an effort to release early and often, I'd like to cut the first
1.7.0 pre-release on June 1. This will likely be a beta release,
since there are still blocking issues, but I hope to get this into the
hands of users (and third-party consumers) soon-ish.
From that point, we'll continue to release beta's until we branch,
which will be when the "1.7.0" issues are all closed. After the
branch, we'll start the release candidates and the soak period.
Update: the circus surrounding the 1.6.17 release has pushed this
timeline back just a bit. As the buildbots are all currently green, I
plan to use r1130886 as the magic rev for 1.7.0-alpha1 and roll and
post the tarballs tomorrow morning (CDT).
Thumbs up!
It just occurred to me that the alpha should come
with a big "1.7 APIs and UI are not final" warning.
