It would seem more appropriate to label it as a pre-alpha release (KDevelop 3.99.1 pre-alpha 1 or something along those lines).

At this point no one really knows the status of the project, or what features will be in KDevelop 4.0.  This makes it very hard for new developers to get started on the project.
