It's been brought to my attention that the "Alpha" and "Beta" naming will probably be innacurate according to our versioning guidelines:
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossProductVersioning
Basically the guidelines say that Alpha and Beta should be used for "feature complete" versions. Mark Proctor has argued that odd number versioning (i.e.. 1.9) should be used for the development process and "even" number versioning (i.e. 2.0) should be used for our final user-facing version. Following these guidelines our new release names would look like this:
6/30: 1.9.0.M1
7/14: 1.9.0.M2
8/4: 1.9.0.M3
8/25: 1.9.0.M4
9/15: 2.0.0.Beta
9/22: 2.0.0.CR1
9/29: 2.0.0.CR2
10/6: 2.0.0.GA
Definately looking for more feedback if this makes sense (remember we can't use "Milestone" as a release identifier in the same release series as our "GA" because of OSGi's version ordering rules)
