But how about Alpha 2 and Beta 1?
I think the Alphas are more for testing some new feature or major change. I am not aware of anything landing that is earth shattering. Running the package tracker manual tests (http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/361/builds/117793/testcases) on the Yakkety daily build every now and then, to see if the new packages synced from Debian have any issues is arguably a more useful a task. For practise on ISO testing and releasing :-) we also have: Xenial 16.04.1 point release on 21st July Trusty 14.04.5 point release on 6th August Note: I will not be around on the 21st July, so I hope experience hands like Len, Kaj and flocculant can help out if required.
