M4 or beta-1, that is the question

[Matt Hogstrom]

I'm starting to look at the end of the month release.   I wanted to  
get some feedback on where everyone thinks we're at.  I'm starting to  
look at outstanding snapshots and the like.  For the end of this  
month I'd like to cut a branch on Mon / Tue.

So the real question is do we go with a beta or a milestone?
Thoughts?
