In light of our current situation with getting builds together but not having a lot of people doing more than simple QA what does the team think about releasing a Public Beta for 4.2.0? I think that this would be an advantage for the project and might serve to bring in more of the community as QA volunteers.
I thought it's without discussion that we need a (long) beta test phase for 4.2.0. So, yes for your proposal.
We can create a new entry on the download webpage, some advertising areas on the other webpages, and other fine things to make it visible.
And - also this should be clear already - we need several builds of 4.2.0 with further included bugfixes; to show an increasing quality towards the final release build.
For me the real question is " *When* do we start the beta? ". ;-) I would like to have a specific level of quality that we give to our users. Otherwise we will get spammed by bug reports which nobody wants to handle.
