Robert,


I don't get your point here... What you're criticising is just the name!!
The 'beta' 1.9.8 beta x is nothing else as a bugfix-release for 1.9.7 -> so
just rename your 1.9.8 beta to something like 1.9.7r4 and you have
automagically gotten what you're looking for ;-)

If you do NOT want to join beta testing, simply ignore the betas and just
grab the one which fixes your bug, which is mostly few hours after you
reported it -> I don't know of ANY other software-company, that gives you
this amount of attention... I was always quite happy with this strategy!
