Hi,

Haha, it is not that I like it or dislike it, but it is confusing to me 
and perhaps some others as well. Let's follow Ubuntu Release Life Cycle 
and have Alpha, Beta, RC and Stable. In between, let's call that 'Daily' 
or 'Latest Build' or anything except Alpha RC :D

Thanks a lot .. I am writing a feedback email :D
Running the latest build on Virtual Box ..
