Yes, but Simon is correct in that 4-5 weeks between betas is a long time, 
when most bugs will be reported (and hopefully fixed) relatively quickly 
after a beta is released ... RC should be held to a more 'release 
standard', but beta's should be closer to a snapshot standard, with a more 
short/fixed timeframe so that debuggers aren't hitting the same bugs that 
were reported (and fixed), weeks earlier ...
