Why? A large portion of the input required to go from beta towards a
release is from actual users. To see when things break, what confuses
them and such.

I don't see why that requires that there are no minor entries in the
open items list - and that's what currently is on it.  Neither does it
seem to be a problem to do code review concurrently to user beta
testing.  We obviously can't start a beta if things crash left and
right, but I don't think that's the situation right now?

Commits
