That all sounds good.

However, last time we did that we had barely any feedback. How do we
plan to change that this time?

Maybe some combination of

- Posting on users@ or announce@ soliciting testing

- Asking downstreams (distros) to make alpha1 packages easily available to opting-in users

- Asking client authors to make alpha1 versions easily available to opting-in users
  [e.g., tsvn nightlies — and then call for tsvn users to install them...]

[And no doubt more avenues]

We should be clearer in these communications about the implications of
using an alpha, i.e., the "use it only on wc's you can re-checkout, and
not on the server-side" warning.
