i am afraid of people starting to use it. put a lot of time into it, then
upgrade to beta2 and have to redo a bunch of crap. if this happened to me id
be pissed, i dont like to have the poverbial rug pulled from under me when
im using a beta.

if we are going to break it then lets at least do it before we have any sort
of a public release. until then people who dont mind living on the bleeding
edge can build from source - which those kinds of people do anyways.

We're not making this build for new people to try out.

Yes, like us. And like I said, before I want to start working on the
last few breaks, I'd like to take a breath and have a version without
the breaks of which i know it works well, so that while I'm upgrading
and testing in the background, the rest of the team can go on and we
can make a deployment with it. I'm sure this would be appreciated by
more people who currently work on 1.3.

What are you afraid of?
