Good idea. If I understand instead of calling an .iso Alpha or Beta
instead name it dev-rel and then we testers refer to it by "dev-rel
<build ID #>" like this dev-rel 14025? Then Alpha and Beta releases are
public and official releases only?

Hello,
Resurrecting an old idea of mine, previously just sketched and never
officially submitted, I'd like to propose the following:
Currently during all the development time, ISOs are being named Alpha
/ Beta / aso.
For some people, maybe bit more properly but imho not really correct
or widely/commonly decided/agreed, are being called pre-Alpha /
pre-Beta / aso.
This way, it happens that ISOs built *along the path* which leads to
Alpha, Beta, etc. are not yet A/B/etc actually.
This preamble in order to explain the "problem" and submitting
possible "solution".
Suggestion is to name the WIP ISO builds (pre-* ) as
Development Release - short name: dev-rel - acronym: DR
So I can say for example: "I'm testing dev-rel 14025" or "I've
installed DR 14025 iso" or "Call for testing dev-rel 14025 for bug
hunting"
The point is not to release ISOs named Beta untill they not soddisfy
the Beta standards (Beta, here just as an example)
ISOs might be named
OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-dev-rel-PLASMA.x86_64.iso
instead of
OpenMandrivaLx.2015.0-beta-PLASMA.x86_64.iso
Finally, when dev-rels will reach the requested standards, we can
release the official Alpha, Beta, etc release for public download.
Just an idea, hopefully you may have some time to consider it.
Thank you for your attention.
