I think it would be good to do a beta for 0.10, given the alpha has been out a couple weeks and had various issues on the proton-j side. There are a couple of remaining blockers still needing resolved, but it would be good to keep the process moving forwards and aid the likleyhood of getting a release out quickly once those are resolved.
The are currently 6 remaining unresolved JIRAs assigned a 0.10 fix-for: http://s.apache.org/ytK These 2 are currently listed as blockers: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-923 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-950 Robbie
