Alpha is different from beta which means that discussion started earlier
than this one (in terms of release date) -- 13 months or so earlier x 4
months (September). It seems strange to rename a beta version because
people use (for test purposes) more beta than alpha. Even at that time
(8.5 alpha) I faced a lot of confusion (2 version in parallel?). Let's
not do it again. Consistency is a good thing. Instead, let's reach a
consensus for the next version much earlier than this time. In my
opinion, when we close the last CF, we have more or less the release
roadmap and can argue more precisely.
