The choice to ship with a beta version of the new DE is interesting. Is it that stable now and will there be a clear upgrade path to the final release?

I'm tempted to grab the beta myself and just go for it now...

Edit: fuck it, I just upgraded my install. Not like I do much important on my computer anyways. This is really nice, almost no pain from the upgrade and other than a couple of menus staying open when I click off of them it's been running just fine. Now to abuse it...

For System76, the choice is to keep shipping their now very long in the tooth previous version or a beta of their new one. I have no doubt the beta is the better experience.

And they are obviously stabilizing the beta rapidly now.
