[wp-hackers] Differentiating nightlies and betas

[Robert Deaton]

Maybe there should be a test before people can download nightlies. If
you can't code yourself out of a wet paper bag, then you shouldn't be
touching them. This way, we keep a lot of the people who would be
asking relentessly on the forums from having access to the new
releases.

Of course, that'd probably not work too well.
