Hey Josh, all
It's been pointed out to me that the 9.2 beta announcements point to
/download/ on the website to get the beta builds. At least for the
installers however, we don't link to the betas from the main download
pages (which is intentional), but from /download/snapshots/, which is
kinda hard to find. Any thoughts on how we can improve that? Should we
replace the text pointing to the snapshots page with something a
little more inclusive of beta/rc builds?

Isn't that going to be wrong for all the other downloads as well, though?
Should we have a generic text on the download page saying "get beta stuff
over here", and then link to /developer/beta/, and then put the info there?

OK, following some further discussion with Magnus over coffee I've
pushed some changes to clarify these pages.
