I have no pain in plasma being less than 100% functional for Alpha1, to be 
exact. The only question that is relevant (besides that I hurt your feelings 
again, I'm sorry really about that): does it help plasma development to get 
user feedback about the current (well todays+2 days) state of plasma or not? 
if you're saying "I don't want anyone to tell me about problems" right now, 
then we have to evaluate a different option. if you're saying "there are some 
problems but we'd still want to have some feedback) , then we're good to go. 

It is an *alpha* release afterall, the amount of feedback it will receive will 
probably be fairly minimal anyway.
