The short answer is no, you do not want to ask for an upgrade yet.

An alpha release is an early one, prior to the product being ready for all users. Wikipedia has a reasonable page explaining how software releases are often named:

Hi,

I don't know enough about how new releases are named. Does alpha mean this
Mailman 3 is now ready for general use? Should I ask my host provider to
move us to it? I'm a bog-standard user so not ready for something that is
still going through early tests and doesn't have everything set up yet.

Thanks.

Clare
