Why can't they have weekly or even monthly "builds" available for rest of us to test. (for those who are willing to reflash often)
Wish they had a hotfix system in place so you can just install the hotfix which fixes a certain bug. (like Microsoft...)

Just release Beta/RC builds and put them up in a unstable repository and for those who are installing, just show a BIG warning sign saying this is UNSTABLE prior to the install. Super easy. That's what they are doing internally, why not do it for the techy guys out here who are willing to also try and test their so called "beta/rc" builds.

We all know PR1.2 will also have lots of bugs and spawn many more enhancement requests. So just release it and let us help report any bugs as we are going to do it even when their "fully tested" gets released anyways.
