The more testers the better? Then we can release it on sourceforge as 
usual and expose it to general public :) It may be questionable whether 
people want release candidates which may be sometimes good, but sometimes 
quite distant from something usable due to bugs.


Another possibility would be to create automated nightly builds - well, 
not binaries, but only source tarballs. Then we can just announce 
something like "release is coming, test the nightlies" :) Whoever is on 
devel interested in testing willl test it.
