My only concern at the time was that there seemed to be a lot of useful
information under /dev that I never saw on the SourceForge site.  If this
info is no longer useful (which I doubt), or if this has all now been put
on the SourceForge site, then by all means feel free to get rid of /dev.
The problem right now is that a lot of the stuff under /dev isn't all that
accessible, because there's no longer a link to it from the main site.
My recommendation would be to put the /dev info elsewhere on the main
site, or else on SourceForge, and then do away with /dev.  I won't be
the one to do it, though.

As far as the testing of 3.2.0b4/b5 is concerned, I regretably have
to let you know that my contribution to the effort will be minimal.
Things have been too busy for me at work since I got back, and I don't
see things letting up before the summer.  Then it'll be vacation time
and the cycle will start again.  I don't even have time now to follow
the mailing list traffic other than peeking at the occasional message
which seems important.
