Hey Vinod,

I'm fine with the idea of alpha/beta marking in the abstract, but had a
question: do we define these terms in our compatibility policy or
elsewhere? I think it's commonly understood among us developers (alpha
means not fully tested and API unstable, beta means it's not fully tested
but is API stable), but it'd be good to have it written down.

Also I think we've only done alpha/beta tagging at the release-level
previously which is a simpler story to tell users. So it's important for
this release that alpha features set their interface stability annotations
to "evolving". There isn't a corresponding annotation for "interface
quality", but IMO that's overkill.

Thanks,
Andrew
