The way I understand it is that if more important bugs are found in a beta, then another beta is issued. After a suitable period has passed without substancial bugs reported, the final beta becomes the release version. This is so that *any* fixes are checked in beta first, not just released on assumption that nothing was broke.
This is at least how it SHOULD be handled ;-)
And of course it makes sense to not introduce new features in the beta phase, because those might cause new bugs.

Yes, in theory, new features should only be added in alpha, but I'm not sure this has been abided by strictly for Zope releases, although I could be wrong. If it hasn't been abided by in the past, it will need to be now to make this scheme workable IMHO. -- | Casey Duncan | Kaivo, Inc. | cduncan@kaivo.com `------------------>
