It barely matches the number of code contributors in the last year (85,

Not a single report yet as far as I know. We get the usual flow of reports,
against
the usual mix or stable, maintenance, and abandoned branches.

Indeed the last two releases, when I could set apart some time to do bug
fixing,
I fixed mostly bugs reported against other versions, since there was close
no nothing
to fix reported against the beta.

Checking on Jira, there a few tickets with "affect version"  equal to
"2.8-beta", but they
were all opened before the beta was out??
https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20GEOS%20AND%20status%20%3D%20Open%20AND%20affectedVersion%20%3D%202.8-beta%20ORDER%20BY%20summary%20ASC

Anyways, the link above can serve as a quick way to check for reports
against the beta

Cheers
