I don't have a problem with Dani's driver, and I regard her driver as a fine
piece of work.

I think I understand what "alpha" and "beta" means to software development,
because I'm a programmer myself. If I wouldn't be a programmer it would be
very possible I wouldn't understand the status of alpha- and beta-software.

Sure, that's true.
