I'd say that 1200 downloads of each alpha is pretty significant.  If
even 1/4 of those people actually do testing, then that's a lot more
than we had for 8.3.  It's also a heck of a lot more than I'd expect.

Sure, it's 5% of an update versions' downloads.  So what?  We don't
expect most people do to alpha testing.  But if *hundreds* of people are
doing alpha testing, we want them to keep doing it.
