I understand both your concerns... But I don't believe it has to be the policy
that we cannot advertise beta releases on the main page too. 1.3.5 is the
latest (not the greatest with no GA) but we still have a link to 1.2.x, why? It
is kind of silly to a dead branch (there will be no more 1.2) but are unsure to
advertise the 1.3.5. If the side bar simply said "1.3.5 (beta)", people could
find it right on the home page and not be confused of its status.
Other apache projects (including tapestry and httpd) advertise their beta
projects on the home page, so why can't we?

Not until it's a GA release, but we could mention it on the front page
below the 1.2.9 section.
It is already on the mirrors, in ibiblio, and on the downloads page.
If wider distribution doesn't turn anything else up, in a couple of
weeks we can consider promoting 1.3.5 to GA status.
