Considering the kind of development that went into 4.7.0 I would not
consider this version a beta. Alvaro made the announcement using an
over-defensive tone but we should keep in mind that there were really
few features added and most of the changes are bugfixes. So I wold
definitely ship 4.7.0 to the end user. The way we develop the
application for years now really does not mandate a "development
release" anymore. Maybe only the port to frameworks or online banking
will require that.

Cristian
