下面是MozillaZine有人對Mozilla.org版本命名的疑問！
我非常認同這篇的說法！老實說，我對Mozilla.org的版本控管一點信心也沒！
RC版本，竟然會regression發生！吐血～

Agreed. I don't understand the dev team's insistance on rocking the boat as far as naming conventions are concerned. This runs counter to common-sense.

Alpha: Preview. We know it has tons of bugs, but this is just to whet your appetite. If we let you see an alpha at all, consider yourselves lucky.

Beta: Getting close to release. Bugs are coming down. Certainly let us know if you find more, but we're well aware that there are a bunch of bugs and unfinished features. We're working on them.

Release Candidate: We think it's done. We've squashed all the bugs we know about (or intend to bother with for this release). Let us know if you find any showstoppers, otherwise these bits will go gold.
