The point is that Beta software is NOT a final release version: It is
put out there for people to test and find bugs before the first
"release" version is put out into the market. It's fine to test a Beta
release and comment on problems. It makes no sense to complain that a
Beta HAS problems. It's /supposed/ to have problems.
