The release schedule
<https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Release-Schedule> indicates we
have a week before in which to help out:


   - Please download this beta and try it out with your data!
   This is important - the development team only has limited test data to
   work with - we depend on you to test GeoServer with an extensive range of
   spatial data!
   - This release includes several security updates - please help ensure
   these fixes do not cause problems (by trying out this release and ensuring
   your configuration loads correctly).
   - If you are able to try out any of the new functionality
   <http://blog.geoserver.org/2015/08/31/geoserver-2-8-beta-release/>, we
   welcome your feedback and any clarifications for the documentation.

Reply to this message, say hi to the development team, and indicate the
platform you were able to test on and I will be sure to list you in the
credits for the GeoServer 2.8 release announcement next month.
