Hi Brian,
From ZWN: The "no changes between last beta and final" approach is one that we are going to adopt from now on. Even seemingly dead-simple bug fixes can turn into (different) bugs, and being very strict about allowing any changes between a final beta and a release will produce fewer surprises. I need to update the official release policy to reflect this.
Sorry, but this seems kindof silly... what's the point of doing a final beta if you're not going to make any changes (even fixing bugs!) after it? Surely you might as well just release it as the final then? cheers, Chris
