No. The beta releases *are* the release candidates. We really do need
to have enough automated tests, beta-testers and a well-enough defined
testing protocol that we don't actually need -rc candidates as well.
Preferrably, it should be good enough for people to roll out beta code
into production servers, but I doubt we'll reach that because of the
psychological barrier. That barrier remains for rc candidates, so they
buy us nothing but cost extra in terms of snapshot versioning complexity.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
