Alright that I understand, though not necessarily agree with. I would
say lack of testing has more to do with time/money management.
Organizations don't want to spend either until: 1) They see the dust
settle on what is going to end up in the release. 2) Whether there is
anything interesting enough to invest both in moving to a new release.
Maybe there is a compelling argument that can be made to get those
organizations off the fence. I just don't what it is as you would have
to convince them to spend time and money rather then just wait and let
the community as a whole do the work.

No we didn't misunderstand, we where responding to what the OP was
proposing which was jumping a production instance from 11 --> 18. That
is a different case then promoting testing of in beta's and rc's.
