Nowhere.

It is right.

This "BETA" (not to be confused with an unstable commercial "beta")
is simply "STABLE" with a tag on it to indicate that it is going
through the release engineering process to become 4.3-RELEASE (and
then 4.3-STABLE).

You have something that is stable, and is just close to the next
release.
