Hi Ryan, There will inevitably be bugs. The problem is that the longer HC remains in BETA the longer a substantial part of its potential user base will not be using it and finding those bugs. We are presently not gaining much by dragging out the API freeze in my opinion. I do not mind delaying 5.0 GA for a good reason but I am reluctant to do it for another round of pointless class renaming. The previous round cost us several months of wasted project time.
