IMO, everyone who is *likely* to pick up an alpha release has already done
so.  It won't get significantly broader or deeper hammering until there's a
beta.  So I'm opposed to a third alpha unless a significant number of bugs
are unearthed by the current alpha (which still has a couple weeks to go
before the scheduled beta).
